Paramedics in Central Newfoundland are hoping the public will turnout to help them send kids back to school with all the essentials.
A fundraiser to pack the back of an ambulance full with school supplies and food items will be taking place at the La Scie town hall on Friday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.
All basic school supplies like pencils, loose leaf, exercise books and bookbags will be accepted. They’re also asking for donations of peanut free food items such as canned fruit, apple sauce, crackers, and juice boxes.
Monetary donations are also welcome.
All donations will help students at Hillside Elementary and Cape John Collegiate.
