What: 'Cookies for Chile' Bake Sale
 
When: Friday, March 12 from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m.
 
Where: Victoria Square (open area near new entrance) in Victoria School of Performing and Visual Arts, 10210 - 108 Avenue
 
Who: Grade 3 student Aryana Donovan wanted to do something to help raise money for earthquake stricken Chile.
On her own, she organized and is holding a bake sale to raise funds for Un Techo Para Chile (A Roof for Chile) and Hogar de Cristo (Christ's Home).
 
Why: Aryana has personal ties with Chile. Her grandparents are currently in Chile and most of her mother's family still live there, including her 93-year-old great grandmother. Aryana felt she had to do something especially after seeing the support that was given to Haiti after its own earthquake tragedy.
