Emily from Wing College tasked herself with the mission of raising funds for the local soup kitchen this festive season! Not only does she contribute to the efforts of the soup kitchen by cooking each week, Emily wanted to do even more!
So she put her entrepreneurial skills to work and ‘embarked’ on a wonderful project…
Emily tells us in her own words exactly what she decided to do…
Hi!
I’m Emily and I attend Wing College!
Every week I cook for Christchurch Soup Kitchen with Ben, our cooking teacher!
For Christmas, I decided to raise some money for the Soup Kitchen. I did this by making and baking Advent Calendars for Dogs and Cats! These had a wide range of natural flavours with some supplements that are brilliantly beneficial for dogs joints! This went incredibly well and I had 26 orders and made £106!
With this money we bought lots of toiletries, Hats, Gloves, Socks and an endless supply of tins! Over the next few weeks, I’m going to be going down to Christchurch Soup Kitchen and helping Cass, our Principal, distribute the supplies to those in need!
I hope to continue this into the New Year by baking for other occasions.
'Well Done Emily' - We are all so proud of your wonderful achievement!
