Charlotte Unites to Combat Pediatric Cancer with Cookies for Kids’ Cancer Initiative

Charlotte Steps Up to Make a Difference in the Fight Against Pediatric Cancer

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — It’s time for the Queen City to get together and support a cause that truly matters! With pediatric cancer being the number one disease killer of children in the United States, there’s no better time to put our hearts and hands into action. Thanks to a local initiative, Cookies for Kids’ Cancer, 100% of the profits from each delicious cookie sold go straight to crucial childhood cancer research. Can you taste the sweetness of change?

Making an Impact through Sweet Treats

Since its inception, Cookies for Kids’ Cancer has granted more than $21 million to childhood cancer research. That’s translating into an impressive roster of over 130 research projects and more than 60 new pediatric cancer treatments. Every cookie sold serves as a bite-sized contribution to this valuable mission. So, when you indulge your sweet tooth, remember that you’re helping children in need!

An Event to Remember

Mark your calendars, folks! The upcoming Cookies, Cocktails, and Canapés event is set to be a night filled with joy and generosity. Hosted by Anne Steppe, who not only chairs this fantastic event but is also the proud mom of the inspiring Tough Cookie, Cody, this gathering promises to be both heartwarming and fun.

Take a moment to picture this: sipping on handcrafted cocktails made by top local mixologists, indulging in small bites and mouthwatering desserts from 16 talented local chefs, and bidding on fabulous auction items, all while tapping your feet to live music from the Parks Brothers Band! What a way to spend an evening, right?

Have Fun While You Give Back

The Cookies for Kids’ Cancer chef events have already made a significant impact, with over $2.5 million raised for childhood cancer research to date. Each event showcases the spirit of community and the power of collective action, reminding us that small actions can lead to significant changes in the lives of many.

Get Involved!

Want to be part of the action? The Cookies for Kids’ Cancer team offers numerous opportunities throughout the year for everyone to get involved! From becoming a monthly donor to hosting your very own bake sale, there’s something for everyone. If you’re looking for the next big event in Charlotte, mark your calendars for Saturday, December 7th for their City-Wide Bake Sale. And here’s the icing on the cake: every dollar raised will be matched by Bank of America, up to $50,000! What a perfect opportunity to make your efforts go twice as far!

Join the Movement!

Charlotte, this is our chance to rally together and support a truly worthy cause! Whether you’re baking cookies, shaking up cocktails, or simply spreading the word, every little bit counts! To stay updated on all events and initiatives, don’t forget to follow local social media pages and get involved.

In the heart of the city, it’s heartwarming to see community members come together to support one another, especially for our children battling cancer. Let’s roll up our sleeves and enjoy some cookies for a cause — after all, every sweet bite is a a step toward a brighter future for all children.
