CANORA - The Grade 12 students of Canora Composite have begun fundraising for their upcoming graduation 小蓝视频 in June of 2024. The class started off with selling meals and baked goods from In Good Taste out of Togo. Grade 12 students sold items to friends, family, and community members.

Another event the grads will be hosting is an upcoming bottle drive. The bottle drive will be held on Jan. 3, 2024. If residents are interested in having the 2024 Grads coming around to pick up bottles, the class is asking everyone to make sure all bottles are in bags and sitting at the end of your driveways before 11 a.m. on Jan. 3. All bottle donations will go toward funding the upcoming graduation in the summer of 2024. The class has also opened a Sarcan Drop-N-Go campaign where people can donate their bottles by going to Sarcan themselves. The Drop-N-Go will be open under the name ‘Grad 24’ until June of 2024.
