Blessed gift

During the Advent season, the Catholic School Council along with the entire staff and student body at Blessed Kateri Tekakwitha Catholic elementary school decided to refrain from giving gifts to one another and instead make a donation to the holiday hamper drives of the Catholic Children's Aid Society, Neighbour to Neighbour and the Good Shepherd. The student council organized the successful drive.
