Helping Hands Award

Evelyn Harrison has been awarded the Let Them Be Kids Helping Hands Award! The program, Let Them Be Kids, was launched in Canada in 2006 and their mission is to assist communities to build play structures. The Evelyn Harrison Home and School Association has been fund raising for a few years now to build a playground for our Kindergarten students. Now with the Helping Hands Award (which turns every 60 cents we raise into a dollar) and a little more help through fund raising over the next few months we can reach our goal!
With help from the community we can complete the project this year. We are looking for anyone with connections to companies that maybe interested in helping us with the fill and/or excavation. We will be fund raising to cover these costs but any help would be greatly appreciated. The Home and School will be hold 3 bake sales and we are looking into other ideas to raise the remaining money needed to complete this project. Please support us in as many ways as possible so that we can keep these small children safe.
