From Central America we turn our eyes to our work in the north of Ontario. Our friend Ron Kyle is spearheading several deliveries for us to the far north by driving the ice roads. He and his team have already delivered about 75 bunk beds and mattresses, which will provide proper sleeping for 150 people. The team has delivered, and set-up the beds when needed, to Mishkeegogamang, Summer Beaver and dropped off beds at the airport to be flown into Sandy Lake. The will continue on the ice roads to deliver more beds to the Kingfisher community.
We are very thankful and welcome aboard the Bolton Rotary Club for their support in this year’s delivery. We are also very grateful to Vale, our core corporate partner in this program. Vale has provided substantial seed funding for three years to our First Nations Bunk Bed program: to procure and deliver 600 safe beds to families in these communities who have inadequate sleeping arrangements for their children.
