Feed the Frontlines Toronto!

The Downtown Montessori City Place Team wanted to show our support to the Front line workers contributing to the healthcare and community services. We decided to donate to an initiative called Feed the Frontlines TO. With our donation, an entire designated COVID-19 Emergency Department will receive a hot lunch or dinner. In these unprecedented times, let us all show acts of kindness within our communities. Click for more information on the initiative. Please take care of yourselves and others!

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!
