Like Idol, only for charity

Like Idol, only for charity: "Students made presentations to classmates, teachers and a panel of judges about four charities - the Georgian Good Food Box, Big Brothers/Big Sisters, Frontline Collingwood Titz and Glitz and My Friends House. The students, who made the best pitch, would earn $5,000 towards their charity.

'They will decide who makes the best pitch,' said teacher Ron Bracey. 'This is the first year we are doing it. It's like Canadian Idol, only for charities.'

The money was donated by the Youth and Philanthropy Initiative, a program organized by the Toskan Casale Foundation."
