To date starving, suffering children have been taken. under the kindly wing of the WRENS Mess at HMCS Stadacona, Halifax, and the men of HMCS Margaree, HMCS Latizon, HMS Wallaceburg, HMCS Sioux and the RCN Air Station at Shear- water NS, The men at Shearwater have astounded Plan officials by adopt- ing 10 -children, and have a friend- ly competition going between units stationed there to see if they can take on more, "So far this scents to he mainly a Navy operation," says a Plan Spokesman in Montreal. "There has certainly been nothing like it from Army Or Air Force units, al- though we are hoping they will re- gard the Navy's example as a de- finite challenge." Today there are over 2,400 groups and individuals supporting :children through rooster Parents' Plan. The adoption is steictly financial, not legal. The foster parent or -group contributes el.5 a month for a minimum of one year. Out of this the child receives a cash grant of $8 a month, plus food, clothing, and necessary medical care, lit Addition the foster parent receives a photo and ease history of the child, and regular letters are cif. changed, translated both ways by Plan. • Why don't you, as At ledividual er as a -Member of a group, let some child love you?
