In a heartwarming display of community spirit and generosity, Lear Corporation Whitby has made a significant impact on Glen St. Public School, a local Elementary School within the Durham District School Board. Throughout the school year, Lear Corporation has provided a monthly pizza lunch for the staff and students, bringing joy and a sense of togetherness to the school community.

As the school year drew to a close, Lear Corporation's commitment to Glen St. Public School reached new heights. They graciously organized a nourishing breakfast for the entire school, ensuring that every student started their day with a healthy meal. Additionally, they restocked the school's snack pantry, ensuring that every student has equitable access to food.

Tanya LaBrecque from Lear Corporation Whitby expressed “how heartwarming it is to positively impact Glen Street Public School.” She shared that “the gratitude from students and staff has been overwhelming, often bringing tears to their eyes.” The smiles and positive changes seen in the school are incredibly rewarding for the Lear team. Providing meals supports students' learning and well-being, and the personal connections many Lear staff have with the school make their efforts even more meaningful. LaBrecque emphasized that “the dedication and generosity of the Lear team, who donate their time and money, are crucial in creating a better environment for everyone.”

Looking ahead, Glen St. Public School is thrilled to announce that Lear Corporation Whitby has committed to continuing their support into the 2024/2025 school year.
