Call for Action – HAITI RELIEF

Saturday, January 16th, 2010

To All Scouts Canada Members

Scouts Canada is calling on all of you to take action to assist the people and Scouts of Haiti during this unprecedented time of crisis.

Please read the attached letter ( -HERE- ) from the Chief Commissioner and International Commissioner and EC/CEO which includes instructions should you wish to make a donation to this cause. Given the rapid acceleration and overwhelming nature of this disaster, groups may feel free to canvas for donations (in uniform) to support the Red Cross Relief Fund.

Please accept my thanks for your support in this very urgent and worthy cause. I am certain all Scouts will rise to this call for action and do all Canadians proud.

Rob Stewart

Executive Commissioner/CEO
