Students face assorted challenges that affect their ability to achieve their best. Through the support of donors, sponsors and volunteers, The Angel Foundation for Learning is able to support, inspire, and nurture TCDSB students through our Four Wings of Support.
Warm clothing, food, hearing aids and eyeglasses are just some of the necessities of life that this fund addresses.
So grateful and impressed with the creativity and energy the grade 7 students at Holy Trinity CS put into their annual school-wide fundraiser “Caines Arcade” and raised $1400 for the AFL! Thanks also to Principal Fietta, teachers Mr. Martin and Mr. Severino.
Loving those hats and aprons! Thank you St. Dorothy for all your hard work and for thinking of the Angel Foundation for Learning to donate your money too. Looks like fun!
