Thanks to the Sargent Family Foundation, almost 21,000 cookies will be delivered this week to local schools for kids from kindergarten to grade 12. This much-anticipated tradition marks the start of Smile Cookie week across Canada.
From April 28 to May 4, when you buy a Smile Cookie in Grande Prairie, 100% of the proceeds will go to supporting cancer care at the Grande Prairie Regional Hospital. Last year, the campaign raised $93,000 for healthcare in the region, making it deliciously easy to make a difference.
Sean Sargent shared his thoughts on the campaign: "I deliver the cookies to all the kids and teachers in Grande Prairie. They all get a smile on their face, and I get a smile on my face from delivering them. At the end of the day, hopefully these kids understand the importance of giving back to their community."
He added, "You pay $2.00 for the cookie, you feel good either eating it or giving it to somebody, and you feel even better knowing that $2.00 or however many you buy goes right to the local charity, enhancing patient care in Grande Prairie."
Don't miss out on this opportunity to support a great cause and enjoy a delicious treat.
