Sarlo accepted a substantial donation from United Steelworkers (USW) Local 2251 on Wednesday.

Mike Da Prat, President of USW Local 2251, and Assistant Debbie Logan donated $17,500 to the board’s Student Nutrition Program to support schools locally and throughout the district for the school year, including Elliot Lake and Blind River.

To date, the local has donated $134,500 (which includes this year’s donation) to Algoma District School Board’s Student Nutrition and Breakfast Programs.

Food programs offer school-age children and youth nutritious options, typically at breakfast and/or as snacks at different times during the day.
