The Education Foundation of Niagara has received a big boost from a local business.
The Hoxie Family from Beatties Basics have donated $25,000 in support of the Leadership Giving Program.
The Education Foundation of Niagara supports DSBN students in financial need. It provides basic necessities such as nutritious food, warm winter clothing and running shoes, to enabling students to participate in field trips, or by making post-secondary dreams come true through bursaries.
Ted Hoxie, President Beatties Basics says “We have a particular passion to assist the young generation to ensure they are afforded the same opportunities in life to succeed. Education plays such an important part in their learning years. Our father, Neil Hoxie, was an educator at the DSBN for many years. Teaching was a passion for him and we are pleased to support the Education Foundation of Niagara in enriching student lives to help keep his legacy alive.”
