St. John’s Ravenscourt School, in Winnipeg, Manitoba, held a bake sale on December 5, 2012 to raise awareness and funds for the Rare Genomics Institute. Following a briefing about what the institute does and why I’m extremely passionate about supporting the cause, many volunteers offered to bring in baked goods in support
of the bake sale. The community service committee within the school was a great support in making everything happen. The senior school student body managed to raise $201.35 in support of the Institute. It was a major success!
