The Guelph Wellington Retired Women Teachers held their annual Christmas dinner and program Wednesday December 1st. Each year at this event individuals are given the opportunity to donate to Sleeping Children Around the World.
130 retired teachers were there and when the donations for bedkits were tallied they had contributed $6,338.50! That's right six thousand three hundred thirty eight dollars and fifty cents!
That translates into 181 children that will have a better chance in life from here on. Thanks and congratulations to those retired teachers who continue to do good things!
This was done in memory of Ann Graham, a former teacher, who passed on almost six years ago.
