Bake sale for Moroccan quake survivors
Scout Troops 64 and 4064 joined forces with local bakery Ladera Patisserie to hold a bake sale at the annual adult softball league finals at Portola Valley Town Center on Sunday, Sept. 17th. The final take from the sale of brownies, cinnamon toffee cookies, ube shortbread and the obligatory chocolate chips was $2,200 and possibly as much as $4,400 if a corporate matching grant comes through, making this by far the most successful single-day fundraiser in recent troop memory. The troop will donate the money to the Moroccan Red Crescent, a non-profit that will support emergency response and relief for those in need after the devastating 6.8 magnitude earthquake that killed more than 2,860 and injured 2,560 more on September 8th. Our Patrol Leaders Council selected the Moroccan earthquake relief as a service project because one of our members is of French Algerian descent and has family in the area most heavily impacted.
