Lester B. Pearson Catholic High School

One way to care for ourselves and our communities during the covid19 pandemic is to remember to still care for the most vulnerable in our human family.

Although the pandemic has not hit countries of the Global South hard yet - it is starting to happen. Without the public health infrastructure of the current epicentres, it is going to be bad. See updates from our partners here: https://www.devp.org/en/covid-19

Development and Peace wants to be ready to help when it happens.

Every Lent we raise funds through our Share Lent campaign to support integral human development projects in Africa, Asia, Latin America and the Middle East. These projects help make communities more resilient in facing times like these.

This year, our school is raising funds for Development and Peace by participating in the first ever National THINKfast. People across Canada will be going without food from March 11th until March 12th.

We will gather at different times online during the fast for prayer, song, social justice activities and games,
