Our very own LKS students Jason and Riley are making a difference! The boys are promoting the Change for Kids Campaign which supports Holland Bloorview Kids Rehabilitation Hospital. Holland Bloorview has helped change the lives of many students with disabilities, including LKS students past and present.
The Change for Kids campaign is about celebrating Halloween, while giving trick-or-treaters the opportunity to help kids with disabilities realize their full potential.
Today, Jason and Riley did an outstanding job launching their campaign at LKS with a morning announcement. They shared with the LKS community their personal connection to Holland Bloorivew and a very clear message about making a difference! The boys then went class to class discussing the importance of helping others and shared their desire to make a difference in the lives of others, especially those in need. The boys also handed out the Change for Kids Cards. With the support of Scotiabank, the cards were donated to LKS for every student to take home. All that was asked of the students was to hand out the 20 trick-or-treat coins on each card during Halloween and to tell children receiving the coins to activate them online. For each coin activated, Scotiabank will make a $5 donation to Holland Bloorview. For more information: http://www.changeforkids.ca/
Congratulation boys and thank you for making a difference!
