September 18, 2020-A big thank you to community partners Belleville Youth Centre and Quantum for donating water bottles to Belleville schools.
Wanting to do something for youth who are returning to school during the pandemic, the agencies showed how much they care by purchasing the water bottles using their limited financial resources.
"We decided to purchase water bottles, knowing that every student is required to bring one. Our budget doesn't allow us to give one for every student. These can be used as an emergency supply for schools to keep on-hand and give out as needed," said Peter Gabriel, Quantum Supervisor.
Ten schools each received 50 water bottles.
