Each year UNIFOR Local 127 at MSSC organizes a toy drive in which all
employees are encouraged to contribute new unwrapped toys for Chatham
Goodfellows. Earl Woudwyk, president of UNIFOR Local 127 at MSSC, said that
employees have been very generous. This year was by far their most
successful toy drive. Four large pallets full of new toys that total well
in excess of $8,000.00 were collected. The toys were turned over to Chatham
Goodfellows Monday afternoon. MSSC Director of Human Resources Neil Johnson
said that MSSC is committed to Chatham Goodfellows and they want to “Ensure
No Child Without a Christmas” by presenting a cheque for $1,500.00 to
Chatham Goodfellows.
Chatham Goodfellows appreciates the generosity of MSSC and their employees.
Our motto is simple: “No Child Without a Christmas”. While our Code is
much longer, one of the key statements in the Code says it all; It’s
understanding a neighbour’s plight, and caring enough to do what’s right.
