Food is life. But dessert might be life saving, specifically cookies. Good thing EHSSA is having a cookie fundraiser! This week, we will be accepting cookie orders and have orders ready on Valentines Day (just in case you forgot about a special somebody). Cookies will be made by Milk Jar! Mix 'n Match however you feel, order as many as you like. Tell your friends and teachers. You can also find any additional information you need on the flyer as well.

Insider information: there may be a good chance that some sample milk jar cookies make their way to PHSA lounge later this week.
