Lack of proper clothing, school supplies and other basic necessities such as food, continue to create challenging conditions for local students across the Thames Valley District School Board.
More than $262,000 in emergency financial support has already been provided to schools so far this year through the Thames Valley Education Fund (TVEF), which is more than ever before.
With the need growing every year, you can help make a difference through the TVEF’s annual Walk & Run for the FUNd in support of TVEF’s Caring Fund.
Running Saturday, June 3rd at Prince Charles Public School in London, this five-kilometre, fully accessible event features food trucks, family-friendly activities, and prizes for top fundraisers.
All proceeds go toward ensuring that help is always close-at-hand for students with urgent needs, providing money for food, clothing, schools supplies and other basic necessities to allow students to focus on their education – even during a crisis.
