HelpTheKids.ca Official Launch
KELOWNA – In response to the shocking events in a Beslan, Russia, a handful of website designers and service companies in British Columbia have began working together to launch HelpTheKids.ca, an information website where people can go to contribute to the relief efforts underway in Russia.
“We are part of a global community,” said a spokesperson for the initiative, “and when we watch events such as what we have seen in Russia unfold on our televisions, we cannot simply sit on our hands and pretend we don’t care.”
The website will contain information about ongoing relief efforts, and links to sites, such as UNICEF and The Red Cross, where people can help.
