90 Gallons of Something Fishy

Rotary Etobicoke provided $5,000 to the George Hull Centre for a 90 gallon aquarium for their reception area of their recently opened new centre.   An official opening ceremony will be held in November at which the club will have a plaque put on the tank as a thank you. 

 

Research has shown that watching fish in an aquarium reduces blood pressure, stress, anger and fear while increasing good feelings and calms children diagnosed with ADHD.  The George Hull Centre serves children from birth to age 18 and their families.  The Centre treats children and youth with mental health issues ranging from depression to separation anxiety to diagnosed psychiatric disorders and severe trauma.
