There's a pile of chocolate chips in the Georgian Bay Secondary School cafeteria waiting to bring relief to Haiti earthquake victims.

Students and teachers at GBSS are in the midst of an organized cookie baking mayhem.

Hospitality teacher, Lanny Watters, said that he's spent the last two nights sleepless, watching images of a country in rubble, and in need of help.

"It's gotten a hold of me," he said in his classroom surrounded by cookie baking assembly lines.

He's organized his classes, with the help of the cafeteria staff, James Osmond, Ada McKinlay and Karen Clermont to bake at least 2,000 chocolate chip cookies, which will be sold to raise money for earthquake relief.

Local grocery stores, Foodland and ValuMart donated Chipits and flour, the cafeteria's suppliers also pitched in some ingredients including shortening, eggs, brown sugar and flour.

Because the ingredients were donated all the money made from the sale of the cookies will go to the relief fund, which will then be matched by the federal government.

Students Against Violence Everywhere, a group at GBSS, is also helping where they are needed, in the kitchen and making posters.

Cookies will be sold at Bill's ValuMart on Sunday starting at 9 a.m. Starting Monday, there will be a table set up in the front foyer at GBSS where any member of the public can buy cookies.

There are also GBSS cookies at the Meaford Express office on Sykes St. North downtown Meaford.

The chocolate chip cookies are $2 for two.

The earthquake in Haiti near Port-au-Prince on Wednesday, February 13, a 7.0 in magnitude was the worst the world has seen in 200 years. Thousands are missing and feared dead.
