Bake sale on the way to the beach
Perfect weather. Perfect location. Perfect time to host a bake sale.
July 4th in Amagansett, NY was a great day for a Cookies for Kids’ Cancer bake sale for Michelle Rotman Jassem and her team of friends, family, neighbors and kids. With the temperature perfect for a day outdoors, foot traffic steadily passed Jassem’s home along the main path to the beach, finding it hard to resist her home made baked goods sold with the help of enthusiastic youngsters.
At the end of the early afternoon bake sale, the team’s total came to $1280. . .but it gets better than that. One of the bakers, according to Jassem the “girlfriend of my friend’s sister-in-law” to be exact, actually has a non-profit foundation and promised to match the total, dollar for dollar. So with that, a beautiful afternoon in the summer raised $2560 to fund pediatric cancer research.
Pick a day. Find some friends. Ask at work if the company will match what you raise. It doesn’t take much to make a difference in fight against pediatric cancer. We hope you’ll come be a good cookie with us.
