People in Waterloo Region are compassionate and caring, and have responded generously to appeals for assistance in times of extraordinary need or disaster at home and around the world. In responding to the emergent re-settlement needs of these newcomers, the Waterloo Region District School Board will be launching the “Newcomer (Refugee) Welcome” board-wide fund-raising initiative. Please take a moment to read the following letter:  Parent- Guardian Letter – Newcomer Fundraiser docx.  Donating instructions can be found here: WEFI – Donating_Instructions
