Children's Aid Society launches holiday campaign

The Windsor Essex Children's Aid Foundation hopes to raised $75,000 this year to assist families and children in their care.

There are 700 families and 1,200 children and youth currently being served by the society.

In addition to monetary funds, the foundation is looking for donations of toys, gift cards, non-perishable food, toiletries, and new household items.

All donations will go toward making sure children and youth can celebrate the joys of the season and have their basic needs met.

Donations can be dropped off at the society's building on Riverside Drive or through wecaf.on.ca.
