A+Community+Need

What community need or issue does the project address? Or where does the idea of the project come from?

**The idea for this project came from the entire S.W.A.T Team. We had a discussion early in the year about how we can use our technical skills at our school in a positive way. We discussed projects where everyone at The Priory would benefit and at the same time do something we can all enjoy. We had an idea! We would create a Christmas Concert DVD and sell it to Priory families.

We also discussed what to do with the money we will make from the sales of the DVD's. We all decided that we wanted to help poor families in Montreal. We thought about all the families that do not have very much and with Christmas coming, we wanted to spread a little joy. The money went to feed the poor and less fortunate families who depend on St. Gabriel's Food Bank in Verdun. We chose St Gabriel's Food Bank because The Priory School has been giving food and donating money to St. Gabriel's for many years. Sister Dianna from St. Gabriel's Parish came to visit us last year and talked to us about the many families that use the food bank and how grateful they are for our help.
