This past Christmas, some of the Duke of Edinburgh students at St. John Bosco decided to give back to their community by helping to shop for and prepare Christmas hampers for a number of families in need.

While on their shopping trip to Sobeys (Howley Estates) on Merrymeeting Road, the Duke students channeled each isle armed with a shopping list and a budget. They caught the eye of the management of Sobeys who were impressed not only by their initiative but also by their behaviors and attitudes. As a result, they donated many items for inclusion in the hampers.

Thank you to our students for their willingness to help those in need and to Sobeys for recognizing the good work that our young people do!!
