Rousseau Gift Drive – Dec. 9 – 20th (extended by a day)

Dear Rousseau families,

Rousseau will be supporting six families in need this year with a “Gift Drive”. Thank you in advance for considering donating an unopened, NEW gift for a family in need. These gifts make a huge difference to families who are experiencing income insecurity. The school Principal of the “receiving” school has made curated wish lists for each family and Rousseau students are each bringing home a list of suggested gifts.

The colour-coded letters being brought home today include a list with:

  • the family number (#1, #2, #3, #4, #5, or #6 — see the summary below)
  • suggested gifts for each member of the family

Please consider taping a sticky note to each gift identifying which family your gift is intended for. Instead of an item on the gift list, grocery gift cards to Food Basics are also welcome items so that families in need can access food over the holidays (when school breakfast programs are unavailable). Multiple Rousseau families in a class could pool their resources to purchase any larger items on a wish list. One family per class could donate wrapping paper/tape so that the receiving parents can participate in the joy of gift wrapping.

Thank you again for considering!

Rousseau Staff
