I'm a member of the Chemainus Neighborhood House Association and I received their annual request to support the "Adopt-A-Family" donations program that they run at Christmas. In the past, Thetis Elementary school has organized donations from our community, which was very much appreciated by CNHA and it was a good experience for the kids.
I'm willing to facilitate the donations again through the school but first wanted to check if anyone else is already planning to donate or coordinate something for CNHA? If so, we will happily support your efforts, but if not we would like to offer in our modest way to ensure Thetis Islanders have a convenient opportunity to donate. Please contact me ASAP if you are already planning to coordinate something on behalf of the community so we can pool efforts and make it easy as possible for our community.
Many thanks,
Kelly Bannister
