Building a FutureThe West Hants community has an amazing opportunity to help create a progressive, dynamic and healthy environment for our childrenWith great excitement, plans are now underway for a brand new, purpose built facility to house the Windsor Day Care. We are scheduled to break ground in the spring of 2010 and are actively asking for support from the community to help us reach our fund raising goals.

The goal of the Windsor Day Care Society capital campaign is to raise $325,000. The campaign will enable the Windsor Day Care to better achieve its goals by alleviating the burden of a monthly mortgage payment, which will be difficult to sustain due to the decrease in public funding. This is the first time in its 34 year history that the Society has looked to the community to help fund a formal campaign.
