“Amjad is an 11 year old Syrian refugee, who has lived in Canada for the past 5 years with his family. Two weeks ago, Amjad’s house burned down destroying everything they owned. Amjad’s father suffered a stroke shortly after. Steven Silvaggio; Teacher at Kennedy Highschool, heard the devastating news from another student; Amjad’s brother. He immediately jumped into action, calling on Peter Valente, of Valente Development Corporation, and Zachery Dereniowski of @mdmotivator . Together, with the help & generosity of the internet, $61,000 was raised and gifted to Amjad’s family. Zach, Peter, and Steven surprised the family with a new place they can call home!”
Amazing work & a thank you to all!
