Reminders: The Mocassin Project for Grades 7 & 8; Aberfoyle School Yearbook

Posted January 24, 2020

1) Mocassin Project: Payment Due Tonight Before Midnight

As a way to make an impact, our Grade 7 and 8 cohort has decided to take action by supporting the Moccasin Project: So They Can Go Home. The Moccasin Project: Da-giiwewaat  is a national campaign to raise awareness about child apprehension impacting Indigenous children in Canada. Through education and citizen action, this organization’s goal is to eradicate racism and bring children home to their families and communities. This Moccasin Project is calling on everyone to get involved and help make 165,000 moccasins for Indigenous children affected by the child welfare system of Canada.

Aberfoyle students feel very strongly about this issue and they have committed to making moccasins to support this organization. To help pay for the materials and to support this initiative, we are asking students to contribute $10.00 to help this cause.

You can pay using the cash online system at: https://www.schoolcashonline.com/

The payment is due Friday, January 24, 2020 before midnight. 

Please help support our students in their quest for social justice for First Nations, Metis, and Inuit children in Canada.​
