Within Halton, there is economic diversity from community to community. Some school communities and parent councils have greater challenges than others raising funds to assist with additional purchases above and beyond core education funding.
Annually, HLF supports dozens of programs in schools across Halton in the following key areas:
Mental Health & Well-Being
Human Rights, Equity & Inclusion
Indigenous Rights & Education
“We forget that not every family in Halton has the same access to the community and the world around them. The HLF grant removed the financial barrier to ensure every student could participate in our learning opportunity."
