The Halton Learning Foundation recently launched this year’s Back to School campaign.
The campaign helps ensure students of families in need have all that they need for the back to school season, whether that be school supplies, clothes, or food.
Executive Director of the Halton Learning Foundation, Lesley Mansfield, talks about how this program makes children feel.
Mansfield says the challenge to afford back to school supplies has always been an issue.
Rockwool’s Corporate Communications and Stakeholder Relations Person, Leslie McLaren, talks about why they got involved.
McClaren, talks about why this program is vital to student success.
They help by making sure kids in need get help within 2-3 hours of the Foundation being notified by a school principal.
This year, the Halton Learning Foundation’s campaign goal is $30,000.
