Two Coquitlam boys are being hailed as little heroes for selling cupcakes to help raise money for wildfire evacuees.
Eight-year-old Logan Culbert and nine-year-old Luca Camarda saw what was happening in the central and southern interior and decided they had to do something.
“I heard on the news that you could raise money for the Red Cross and I decided to try a little ice tea stand with cupcakes,” said Logan.
They managed to raise $280.
Speaking on Steele and Drex, Logan’s mom Kim said she was very proud.
“They did amazing, selling cupcakes while all their friends were in the pool splashing around.”
Could there still be a sweet tooth to sell more? “Maybe,” Logan said.
Meanwhile, more than 40,000 people are still out of their homes because of wildfires burning across B.C.
On Tuesday, about 1,100 residents were allowed to return to Cache Creek where an evacuation order was downgraded to an evacuation alert.
