I have thought long and hard on how to really use my Karri Hour to make a difference, I wanted to do something to make Karri proud. In honour of Karri Hour I have gathered a few of my classmates and friends to do a food drive. We will be collecting food items around the community and the city of Ottawa. Our goal is to fill a school bus full of food to be able to give to the food bank in order to help them supply families with Thanksgiving dinner. Many people rely on the food banks around the city and we figured that Thanksgiving is usually a sad and hard time for people so we wanted to give back. I will post another Karri Hour Story when we fully complete this goal. We also intend to do a coat and boot drive closer to winter for kids and adults around the city who go without a coat during our freezing Canadian months. Karri hour is something I plan to live by, Karri was an amazing man who taught me that being self-less took you further than being selfish. Thank you Karri for helping us all build the love and kindness in our hearts. I know you will be proud of all the good we are doing in honour of you.
We miss you everyday.
