IT'S THE LAW! Responsible Pet Owner's By-law 94-077 • LICENSE YOUR PET • KEEP YOUR PET ON A LEASH AT ALL TIMES • STOOP AND SCOOP AFTER YOUR PET • KEEP YOUR PET SAFE AND SECURE In January, Amanda Sullivan, a Grade 5 George Kennedy student, began her quest to raise $1,000 for a charity committed to helping people who are homeless. She decided on the Halton Women's Place, a community organization which provides "a safe haven, information, services and education to support a future without abuse for women and children." Over a three-month period Amanda diligently made finger knitted hats for supporters of her project. She raised just over $1,200 exceeding her goal of $1,000. Recently, Amanda handed over the cheque to Kaitlin Gordon, Development Coordinator at Hal- ton Women's Place. Submitted photo
