Five North and West Vancouver Scout Groups, 1st West Vancouver, 3rd West Vancouver, 6th St, Agnes, 21st Capilano and 31st Capilano, have pledged $4000 from the proceeds of their annual Christmas Tree Sale to the Scouts Canada Foundation – Haiti Relief. Scouts Canada will forward these funds directly to the Canadian Red Cross Haiti Earthquake Fund.

 

The devastating earthquake that struck Haiti on January 12, 2010 has caused catastrophic damage and massive fatalities and casualties. The Haitian government fears fatalities could reach 200,000, and the United Nations has described the earthquake as the greatest natural disaster in living memory.

 

The North and West Vancouver Scout Groups encourage other Scout Groups and service organizations to do what they can to help the people of Haiti recover from this disaster which has devastated their country.
