Ont.- Cripple'd, Children's Society, Needs More Support from Citizens Through Easter Seal Contributilons Organizers for this year's Easter Seal Campaign are calling' for strong support from the public as the fund-raising drive is set to start in this area once again. 1Greater participation from the public is required to meet the need of a growing handi- capped, population, Ontario Society for Crippled Children representative, John Butler told local Rotary Club mem- bers last week. Mr. Butler, supervisor of service club relations for the organization said they have come to a point where much more responsibility is placed gw Phone 623-7312 UNIS EX Tricho-Analysis Facials and Make.up Redken Hair and Skin Products Bowmanvlle ù,Cleauners on the public to respond to their caîl for help. Crucial Stage The Increasing demand on the public purse is the result of a deficit ia the society's budget which has been stead- ily increasing recently be- cause of inflating costs, Mr. Butler said. With a forecasted deficit of $600,000 in 1977, the organiza- tion has reached a crisis point in their existance, because incoming funds are lower than outgoing payments, hie added., Part of the reason for higher costs is from improvements made in equipment for handi- capped children. While research has pro- duced far better equipment to help the handicapped cope with their inabilities, it has brought greater expense to the society along with it. The cumbersome and often grotesque equipment of the past is giving way to technic- ally superior devices that are sometimes almost indisting- uisbable from the human mechanism they attempt to replace, hie told the Rotarians. Artificial lîmbs at one time required great -strength to operate but now need little effort at all to control, hie said. The difference la costs, how- ever, has widened too, with some of the new mechanisms jumping to prices as high as $1800 for an artîfîcial arm., But not all improvements have been accompanied by sky-rocketing costs, hie point- ed out.. The great strides made in upgradiag leg braces have brought about a decrease in costs instead of the usual rising expense spiral. Besides economizing through the advances in research, the children have a ligbt weight piece of equip- ment which is much less awkward than previous makes. Government Intervenes Since the society was first formed in 1922, the most effective fund-raising method has been througb the annual Easter Seal campaign. Another area of concera is the need for more support from the governmeat for their various projects. Several years ago the government promised to pro- vide more funding to offset the cost of building treatment centres around the province. When cutbacks ln spendiag were ordered, however, the goverment withdrew the pro- gram to subsidize 80 per cent of the costs of construction on treatment centres. With the paring of govera- ment expenses came a drop in the whole effort to bulld more treatment centres around the province. even though they were urgently required. Mr. Butler cited the cost of $25,000 for a northern Ontario clinic to transport childrea la their care to the Toronto treatment. centre, as evidence of the need for more of the faCilities. Even with contributions comiag from the 234 various service clubs giving 'to the Easter Seal drive, the pro- gram has been forced to discontinue. Some goverament spon- sored grants are still coming in but only alon g termis already outlined. One such grant for $400,000, donated strictly for use la cystic fibrosis research, costs them approximately $110,000 t by Ruth ARIES [Mar.21.Apr.20] Your head is in the clouds, Aries.
