Councillor Matlow (Ward 22) notes the annual Ecumenical Christmas Food Drive organized by churches in the neighborhoods. This is the 44th year that they have done this good work. As recorded in the news release: “Flyers are delivered to area households on Saturday, November 21 and donations are then picked up on the following Saturday, November 28. There are two locations. The first is Our Lady of Perpetual Help Church (OLPH) on St. Clair Avenue East, one block west of Mount Pleasant Road. The other is St. Cuthbert’s Church on Bayview Avenue, south of Millwood Road near Humphreys Funeral Home. Please note that this is a changed location from Leaside Presbyterian because of the LRT construction on Eglinton Avenue.”
DAVISVILLE PUBLIC SCHOOL
There are many other subjects of interest to Davisville residents and people beyond as well in the Matlow release. There is word on funding for a new Davisville Public School. The timing of the actual construction of this much-needed facility may be another matter. Mr. Matlow says he continues to work to encourage the government and others to create a community hub on this large piece of land near Yonge Street. November 6, 2015 news release
