Noelle’s Gift Continues For Local School Boards

The Noelle’s Gift Foundation continues to support both local school boards with generous donations.

The foundation has donated a total of $125,000 dollars to the Lambton Kent and St. Clair Catholic District School boards to supports students and families in need over the past year.

The $125,000 donation from Noelle’s Gift is shared among the two school boards to purchase eyeglasses, clothing, food, medicine and medical equipment.

The funds are dispersed independently by the two school boards and requests are processed quickly to help families.

“The generous donations from the Noelle’s Gift Foundation have helped to support students and families in need during the COVID-19 pandemic and throughout the school year,” said John Howitt, Director of Education for the Lambton Kent District School Board.

“Especially this year, we are so very grateful to the Noelle’s Gift foundation for its tremendous support of children and families who need help,” says Deb Crawford, Director of Education for the St. Clair Catholic District School Board.

The Noelle’s Gift charitable fund was established in memory of Noelle Paquette, a former Kindergarten teacher with St. Clair Catholic, who passed away in January 2013.
