The Free the Children group at Kincardine District Secondary School has raised $3,309.55 through the "Hope for Haiti" coin drive. When matched by the Canadian government, that means $6,619.10 for Haiti.

Organizers challenged each classroom of students that if they raised $100 or more, they would receive a cake for the class. The group ended up baking 14 cakes and delivering them to the classes.
