Mr. Speaker, May 19 marks the 75th anniversary of Save the Children-Canada. Its supporters have included Prime Ministers and Canadians from every walk of life.
Today, Save the Children through its partners in 24 countries and its volunteers across Canada assists in improving life for children throughout the world, including Canada. Furthermore, Save the Children programs are managed by its country directors working with local partners on local needs.
As a founder of the rights of the child, Save the Children is a key player in helping young people build a future that includes education, love and protection from neglect and disease.
I thank Save the Children and its volunteers, especially in Guelph-Wellington, for their valuable contribution to all of our children.
Happy anniversary.
