Mrs. Bauer invited us into her Grade 7 Leadership Class at Alexander Forbes yesterday to educate her students on building a compassionate community and wrote Christmas Pen Pal letters!

We received these beautiful fidget blankets today from Alice and they are absolutely perfect! The time, effort, and creativity that went into these is just amazing. ❤️
We are so thankful for the support.
These are sure to make someone's day.🦋
