Dear Mayor and Councilors,
Re: Proclamation for National Missing Children’s Month and
Missing Children’s Day
I write today on behalf of Child Find British Columbia. Child Find BC
requests that your local government proclaim May as Missing Children’s
Month and May 25th as missing Children’s Day.
Child Find BC provides “ALL ABOUT ME” ID Kits with child finger
printing and photos, to at no cost to families and Child Find BC hosts
these Child Find ID Clinics throughout BC. Child Find BC provides
education, including public speakers, literature and tips for families to
assist them in keeping all of our children safe.
In the next few weeks the 2013 posters of missing children from across
Canada will arrive at your offices. We have attached an electronic
printable copy for your use as well. It is our hope that you will arrange
for these posters to be placed at municipal facilities where children and
families frequent. If you would like any additional hard copy posters
they will be provided upon request.
We hope that you will raise this proclamation for consideration to your
Council and your community at your next meeting.
Most recent reporting from the RCMP show that over 10,000 cases of
missing children were reported in British Columbia and over 50,000
cases in Canada. Through the support of municipal governments like
yours we are able to educate and bring awareness to thousands of BC
families on this important issue.
Thank you so much for your consideration of this request and your
continuing commitment to Community Services in BC and the children
and families of BC. If you have any questions regarding this request
please contact the Child Find BC office at 1-888-689-3463.
Yours truly,
Crystal Dunahee
President, Child Find BC
Your Letterhead here
