The OHF Supports FTLOCS Australian Fires Initiative spearheaded by OHF Committee Member Ashid Bahl

Message from FTLOCS’s Ashid Bahl pictured with Milcolm Stinbury in Adelaide Hills Australia last week. ‘Milcolm and his family lost their home where he cared for his grandchildren to the recent terrible Australian fires. For The Love of Children Society assisted 90 families affected by the fires by assisting with essential supplies for children and families. We appreciate all the funding received and a special thanks to the Owen Hart Foundation for their contribution for this important initiative.’ The OHF is glad Ashid Bahl is now safely back in Canada isolating to guard against the spread of Covid-19.

We are extending all future funding for the delivery of essential medical supplies for Covid-19, including hundreds of masks, gowns & hand sanitizers to children and families around the world.
