Purple for CAS
October 4, 2012 permalink
Public school students in Winchester Ontario are invited to wear purple on Friday, October 19 to support the children's aid society. Fixcas favors reduction of child abuse and neglect. We are not so sure supporting Ontario's children's aid societies is an effective way to do so.

We are asking students and staff to participate hy dressing in purple that day Each person wearing purple will receive a ballot which will enter them into a prize draw.
