No Cold Child seeks to combat this and provide outerwear for children in need within Windsor-Essex. @thefortisgroup has once again partnered with the Windsor-Essex Children’s Aid Foundation to help those most vulnerable in our community. WECAF generates programs for 1 in 8 children and youth in the community that the Windsor-Essex Children’s Aid Society provides services to. The Windsor-Essex Children’s Aid Foundation believes that every child deserves an equal opportunity for reaching their potential, and the essence of this is ensuring their basic needs are met. Fortis Group has been honoured to support many WECAF initiatives and looks forward to further building on this amazing partnership. For more information please contact Sam Martin at [email protected] or at 519-562-4425.

Our wish is each child finds a forever family who will offer a stable permanent home. We hope by focusing on adoption, we can encourage our community to consider adopting so every child/youth in our community will be a permanent part of a loving family. wecas.on.ca
