Why Purple Cake Day Started

After the massive earthquake, there was a day started by Emily and she called it Purple Cake Day and she started that because it was Emily’s daughter Zenzie’s 4th birthday and she asked her mum ( Emily) for a purple cake, but then instead of only one she wanted 2 purple cakes and then she wanted to start a day called Purple Cake Day so she was the one that started the whole thing in the first place and also she started that day because she wants to raise money for the kids education and she was going to give all the money that she raises to a country called Haiti and right after the earthquake in Haiti they got a man from Wellington to come down to Haiti and rap a song for Haiti, so people can come to Haiti and try and give them all the help they need. They came up with six words and they are in Haitian and you can translate it into english as well. The six words are Lunion La Flait La Force and Lunion La Flait La Force means Strength Through Unity and the other 3 words are Kenbe La and Kenbe La means Never Give Up. Emily also had two other daughters called Alyanha and Kofie-Jade and she also husband called Emmanuel. Emily’s two daughters Zenzie and Kofie-Jade and her husband died in a massive earthquake, but the only one of her daughter’s was saved and it was her youngest daughter called Alyahna. Alyahna was only one years old and she was stuck under a big pile of stones and she was trapped under the stones for 22 hours and it was 8:00 when she got saved.
