The Chosen Charities for 2009

Send’em Off Smiling

Send'em Off Smiling is a registered charity which was founded in 1994 to provide school clothing and supplies for local children in need. We make use of teachers to identify those children who will benefit most from the program. We know from teacher feedback that the program does an exemplary job of "connecting the dots" between child poverty, learning readiness, and the future prospects of these children.
