On Monday SCS will be having its own rowing contest at lunch to raise funds for the following endeavor;

In December of 2017, Colin will be crossing the Atlantic Ocean – from the Canary Islands to Antigua – to not only challenge himself, but to challenge others including YOU in making a real difference in the lives of people who have an intellectual disability and their families.

My son Jeff has physical and intellectual disabilities and life is not always easy for him. Our family has been fortunate enough to receive support over the years from our local Community Living association and we have been grateful for the support we have received. That being said, people who have similar disabilities across Ontario are often not so fortunate as to lead a full and inclusive life as my son and may not have access to the right supports or have someone advocating for their needs. I am rowing across the Atlantic Ocean to raise awareness and funds for Community Living Ontario and member associations.”
