It was our great pleasure to have James Symons, founder of Toolbox Project Niagara, as our guest speaker.
James recognized a need in his community and took action. He serves underprivileged men with a personal gift bag at Christmas.
He is asking us to help him provide for these men with sling bags filled with items such as body wash, shaving apparel, socks, gloves, toque, snacks, puzzle books etc. Most of these men in need live in shelters on restricted incomes.
Linda Landry thanked James with a donation to Polio Plus of 10 vaccinations.
