Mark your calendars! Our 2010 Week of Change will be Feb 22 - 26th!

The Education Foundation of Niagara’s Poverty and Emergency Relief Fund (PERF) responds to emergency requests by schools on behalf of DSBN students in need. This initiative supports the extraordinary, and sometimes emergency, personal and school-related needs of individual students brought about by financial hardship. The Foundation has reserved funds to allocate to students who fall within this category to pay for winter clothes, proper footwear, bus passes, field trips, basic school supplies, team uniforms, cafeteria vouchers etc.

Since its inception in 2008, the Poverty and Emergency Relief Fund has been able to touch the lives of over 1000 individual students throughout our DSBN schools. Without the support from the schools, individuals and community businesses, we would have not been able to provide as much support as we.

To continue the works of relieving poverty and helping students during emergency situations, we would like to thank everyone in the Niagara community and DSBN schools’ staff, students and parent communities who participated in our second annual Make Change for Children Week of Change – April 20 – 24, 2009.
