Our Cross County Tour!
Making special deliveries to our very
special families across Dufferin and Wellington! Made by one incredible
caregiver and given to all the other incredible caregivers out there!
"These kits are amazing!!! Thank you so much for your hard work! We had a lot of fun"
"We just got the care packages activities kit today and I just want to say a huge thank-you! Sometimes it feels like you're slugging through this (especially during COVID time) on your own, so it was so encouraging to know that the thoughts are there. And delivered on a Sunday no less! Thank you again!! Our oldest can't wait to get started"
“We just got ours too. Thank you, Thank you sooo much. Your thoughtful
message meant so much. My (daughter) will have a blast doing these. Such a
sweet and kind gesture to help put smiles on our kiddos faces.”
“Our kids also received their bag full of activities this morning and
they were excited about opening the bag and were so happy seeing all the neat
activities. Our oldest with special needs right away worked on one of the
crafts and said "That was really nice for them to give us these
activities!" I also want to say a special thank you for including our
other children and providing activities for them too so that they did not feel
left out. Such a thoughtful gesture.”
“So grateful! We also received one for our son. So very thoughtful and
appreciated! Put a smile on his face.”
