Kindness Matters!

Our kind and caring staff at Infinity Place came together as a group to put together a donation of much-needed PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) for our healthcare workers. We were able to buy 15 boxes of gloves (and our supplier Avron also donated 2 boxes). These were donated to the PPE donation drive at Michael Garron Hospital in Toronto’s east end. The people collecting the donations were extremely grateful. In these uncertain times, even small acts of kindness in our community can go a long way. Currently, food banks are also requiring donations. In most grocery stores at the front of the store, you can find large boxes to leave donations in. Let’s take care of each other!

Making Fruit Salad With Stephanie!

Stephanie, from our Under 2 classroom, helped her children make a fruit salad together. This was part of their breakfast, and her son used the fruit in his yogurt as well.
