The event raised $1,400 for CMETrust to support young women in Kenya in their post-secondary education. WEunlimited a organisé un souper-bénéfice "sushis-rouleaux vietnamiens" samedi le 9 septembre 2017. Une leçon de confection de sushis et rouleaux vietnamiens a débuté vers 15h00 et le souper a eu lieu vers 18h00. Des vins appropriés pour ces plats ont été offerts. 15 personnes y ont participé et 5 autres personnes ont fait des dons mais ne pouvaient pas y être. Le souper a ramassé 1 400 $ pour CMETrust afin de soutenir des jeunes femmes au Kenya dans leur poursuite de l'éducation post-secondaire.
In early 2017, a campaign was launched aiming at creating a group of people ready to commit themselves to give together, annually, $4,000$ to CMETrust, for 4 years. Such an amount will give access to 4 girls or young women to higher education. A group of 18 people responded positively to this initiative, which is now completed. Another email campaign was launched in earlyJuly 2017. Planned fund-raising activities for the remaining of 2017 include two workshops – a culinary one in the summer and a personal development one in the fall. Between January 1 and August 15, 2017, more than $4,000 was raised for CMETrust. |
