UPDATE: ROCKFORD (WIFR) -- Thursday's fire on Grant Avenue is prompting two local girls to give back.
They're using tonight's kid's vendor event at the Rockford City Market to raise money for the victims of Thursday's fire.
Eight-year-old Isabella and 6-year-old Juliana are selling treats they baked today on Water Street at City Market.
The annual program gives children a chance to sell things they've made during the market.
This is the sister's second year participating, however, this year their profits will go to the victims.
The girls say they feel like they are running their own business and are happy to help that are in need.
