As a lifelong resident of Windsor/Essex County, I believe it is my responsibility and duty to give back to my community; a community that has given so much to me and my family.

Mike Fisher

Knowing that the Windsor-Essex Children’s Aid Society touches the lives of one out of every eight children in our community makes such a compelling case for the importance of the work of both the Society and the Foundation. I believe providing children with opportunities to learn, grow and smile is crucial to their development and the WECAF is at the heart of making this happen.
