‘Bread Boys’: Young Saanich twins raising dough for Canucks Autism Network
The 9-year-old twins have raised about $700 in three weeks by selling baked goods, pottery and plants to support the Canucks Autism Network.
- In Saanich, 9-year-old twins Charlie and Loki Swenson run a weekly stall called Bread Boys to raise funds for the Canucks Autism Network.
- The Swenson family established the stall five years after Loki was diagnosed with autism, deciding to give back after receiving support from the Canucks Autism Network.
- Every Friday night, the family begins a baking spree for the weekend, offering cookies, sourdough bread, and brownies, while their great aunt donates handmade pottery.
- Since launching three weeks ago, the stall has raised about $700 for the Canucks Autism Network; mother Chelsea Swenson noted they are taking the project weekend by weekend.
- The boys are requesting seedling donations from local greenhouses to expand plant inventory, and the family remains open to future campaigns supporting the Canucks Autism Network.
