This year we’re proud to be part of the Guelph Community Backpack Project with Hope House, Guelph Neighbourhood Support Coalition, Children’s Foundation of Guelph and Wellington, YMCA of Three Rivers and Salvation Army. More than 350 backpacks will be distributed through our agency before school starts.
