Certain 490G classes, under the direction of ELC teacher Gerry Luton, regularly do a charity project. The purpose of this project is to involve students in a complex, multi-stage class project which has a concrete goal of helping those less fortunate while requiring students to use English in an authentic context. A bake sale is held at various locations on campus and the money collected is donated to the designated charity. By our 50th year, these classes have raised just over $50,000! Please enjoy this video we made highlighting the Charity Bake Sale Project!
Students in previous sessions have raised funds for a number of worthy charities. You can read about these important organizations and the wonderful work they do on Gerry’s class website: http://web.uvic.ca/~gluton/class/Web%20Pages/Gerry%27s%20490G%20Class%20-%20Charity%20page.html
