Career Day at PS 161 in Richmond Hill...Lynn Nunes Speaks to Students...

It’s been said that it takes a village to raise a child. This premise was the motivating factor behind the coordination, by Chairperson JoAnne Franco, of the Career Day event at PS 161 in Richmond Hill. Many people selflessly took time away from their jobs and donated their time to the event. A community activist and local business owner, Lynn Nunes who took part in the event, is eager to return again next year.

“Tomorrow belongs to those that prepare for it today, and we must make every effort to prepare our children”, said Nunes, “An investment in children is the wisest investment we can make, if we hope to solve the world's major problems, we must provide richer learning opportunities for the world's children. An educated and creative population is, without a doubt, the best path to global health, wealth, and peace.”
