The Kindred Foundation has been supporting WAES for the past several years. In December we received a very generous donation. This money will be used to purchase the food, personal care and household items our community needs. Thank you to Antonia for volunteering each month, and to the Kindred Foundation for believing in the work we are doing in York South Weston. THANK YOU!
