Raising money for food bank

Fifteen-year-old Jordyn Borsellino took it upon herself to raise money for the Sooke Food Bank.

The Edward Milne community school student organized a bottle drive for a school program, for which they had to do something charitable, and raised $152.25 with the bottle drive through Sunriver. Borsellino is also involved in the First Sooke Venturers.

Donations of cash or non-perishable food items can be dropped off at the Sooke News Miirror office at #4-6631 Sooke Road.
