Three (3) EMSB schools are creating an intergenerational recipe book that will be launched at the “Cook for a Cure” Gala. This intergenerational project is a multimedia, cross-curricular project designed to engage our students in writing, photography, and other activities as they researched the history behind their family’s photographs and artifacts. After writing about their family member of their choice, they will share a family recipe which will be placed in the cook book.

​

The official launch of each book will take place on Tuesday May 9th at Plaza Antique (6086 Rue Sherbrooke Est, Montréal, Québec H1N 1C1) at 6 p.m.

All proceeds from the book sold will benefit The Montreal neurological Institute and Hospital for Alzheimer’s  Research.
