Help Somali family come live in area

Opinion

Editor:

We read a book, My Friend Jamal, in our Grade 1/2 classroom about a Somali family who had to leave their country because it was too dangerous. There was fighting in Somalia. Then we read the newspaper article about a Somali mother and her two daughters who need a new country to live in.

We think the people in our community could give money so that the Somali family could live in our community.

We want them to feel welcome and accepted here. They need money for a safe and peaceful home.

In Canada and in our community, it is safe and peaceful. Christmas is coming so you might want to give the Somali family a gift of money before Christmas.

That's why we think people could give money to help the Somali family come to live in our community.
