I am the Cupcake of Hope

Dear Friends and Family,
Over the past few years, I have witnessed the heartaches and devastation that cancer brings. I am sure I am not alone in the grief I have witnessed. Every day we meet someone who is personally touched by the burden of cancer. In effort to fight back, I have joined a team to walk in the “Relay for Life” cancer walk. This supports the American Cancer Society’s effort in search for a cure. If you are not familiar with this effort, you can visit their website at: http://www.relayforlife.org/relay/
In effort to raise funds and show support, our team, “The Box of Cupcakes” will be walking for two days, May 17th and 18th in Ventura, CA. In addition to donations, we will also be planting a cupcake garden to be on display at the walk-a -thon for thousands of visitors to see. Each glorious, handcrafted, Multi-media, cupcake inserted into our garden will represent someone who is fighting or has survived the battle of cancer or in memory of someone you have lost. It is my pledge to you that for every relay I walk in from here on out, your cupcake will continue to flourish in the garden so that no one will forget. The suggested donation for each cupcake is two-dollars. Every penny counts and is greatly appreciated!
Checks should be made to the American Cancer Society. Should you wish to plant a cupcake, please include on a separate piece of paper the name in which you would like your cupcake dedicated and a personal message you would like included. Millions of people will benefit from your generosity!
Thanks for all your help,
Heidi

I won this cute little gift for being such a ambitious ‘cupcake.’ The little cupcakes are lip balm and the ‘Legalize Frostitution’ is a mirror…is that not the cutest thing you’ve ever seen?!! Thank you so much Sunday!
