Indigenous Learning gratefully received a generous $10,000 donation from Domtar (Howe Sound Pulp and Paper) in February. The donation is an acknowledgement of the strong Indigenous Learning programs in the district, and is designed to empower Indigenous students and their families.  Aimed at supporting Indigenous students to imagine a future where career and post-secondary opportunities are within reach, the donation will help create connections and pathways to success. A heartfelt thank you to Domtar and all those involved in securing this contribution for our schools!
