Where does my Tuesday Toonie go?

This letter was received over the summer from the TDSB’s Student Nutrition Program.

Dear Crestwood School

I would like to thank you for the continued support of Kensington Community School in helping to provide much need funds for the Student Nutrition Program through the Toronto Foundation for Student Success.

Last year alone, your students helped to raise a total of $3,257.00. The commitment your students and staff have made since 2010 in total dollars raised is $16,484.00. This astounding achievement is a shining example of community giving and comes with much appreciation.

The tireless efforts and dedication your students bring truly shows in the smiles of happy children as they enjoy a new healthy nutritious food. With your support, the school took the courageous leap to go from serving a few students breakfast , to feeding the entire school population a three food group meal in the classroom five days a week. The funds have now stretched into our everyday lunch program.

On behalf of the Kensington Community School I would like to enclose a Certificate of Appreciation as a gesture of thanks in helping to make a difference in the lives of each and every student, every day.

Sincerely,

Mena Paternostro, Coordinator, Student Nutrition Program
