KRŠĆANSKI PROGRAM DOBROVOLJSKIH USLUGA
Running for Rachael (RFR) plays a vital role in supporting the city-wide work of suicide prevention in Hamilton by bringing the community together to promote hope, help, and healing through crisis support information, training, education, and support groups.
Students from the HWCDSB have participated in this community event for over 6 years. Like last year, this event will be virtual again, giving the students an opportunity to choose the day and location of their choice.
Registration will close on Friday, October 29, 2021.
For students who register online, participate, and collect/submit donations, 6 hours of Christian Service will be approved.
** Students who are in serious financial situations are encouraged to visit their Student Success Teachers who will assist with the donation costs.
