This card was created for last night's Mini VSN - a card for the Card Drive thread in Need a Lift Forum (hadn't seen this before). As I am a Candian I went to the Canadian forum and learned about a school in a very rural part of Northern Ontario that burned down. It has had a devastating affect on the community. This card will be going up there but as I am a member of our social committee at work, I'm going to first see if we can send a donation up there as well.
Thanks to the VSN gals for bringing this to my attention.

Now how cute is this?!?!?!? Love the colo(u)rs you chose and how you added texture. The Pikangikum kids will love this for sure!
THanks for playing in my Double Dog Dare challenge! (And for petitioning for your company's support--that would certainly give the rebuilding effort a big boost!)
For others who may want to support this cause, here's the thread in Need a Lift:
The messages inside the cards received will be translated into Ojibway and read over the local radio station to encourage the community as they rebuild.

This card made me smile!! Thanks for taking part in sending a gesture of love to that community. If you go on Facebook, there is also a group there dedicated to that cause and they also have names to contact for monetary donations. The group on Facebook is called, from one child to the next, the future depends on the present. You have to join Facebook to see the group, but that only takes a minute or two. :-)
Thanks for your wonderful contribution!
