Can Tabs for Accessible Washroom
CFLS
Since April, Arthur Durocher has been collecting aluminum can tabs to help his friend Isaac Wall raise money to renovate his bathroom and make it wheelchair accessible.
Arthur and Isaac are both sons of Defence Team members, Véronique Fournier and Tracy Wall who work at the Language School at Base Gagetown. When Arthur heard about Isaac needing to raise money, he remembered a can tab fundraiser that they completed at school previously and suggested that they run one for Isaac!
The students and staff of the Language School at Base Gagetown are championing this cause, which is dear to our hearts. We invite you to donate your can tabs. You can drop them off with Véronique at the Language School.
Help us to help him!
