Donations let struggling Shea Heights daycare doors stay open - for now

After a flood of community financial support, a daycare in the Shea Heights neighbourhood of St. John's that had said it would have to close its doors Friday is now able to stay open, at least for now. At the beginning of the week, the situation at Panda Bear Daycare was dire. COVID-19 complications had forced its already struggling operation into a financial corner, and the head of its volunteer board estimated they'd need $20,000 immediately to live to see another week.
