I reached my $3,000 Goal for 2017!

9/24/2017

 
September has been such an incredible month! I am super excited to share that I reached my 2017 goal of $3,000 in total donations this month. Everyone has been so generous and supportive. Thank you all so much. And a special thank you to Mrs. Sara Hong for making the donation that put me over the top of my goal!

Also, this month I was interviewed on WCCO radio by Ms. Roshini Rajkumar. The executive director of Smile Network, Ms. Maureen Cahill, invited me to join her (thank you so much Ms. Cahill and Ms. Rajkumar). It was so much fun - check out the pictures below. You can also listen to the broadcast here (we start at 20:21). I can't wait to go to the Smile Network gala later this month.  
As great as the experience was, what was more amazing and special was the response I got from one of the listeners, Mrs. Cheryl Beilke.  She was listening to the broadcast as she drove her husband home from surgery at the Mayo Clinic. When she got home she reached out to me on my website and requested a fishing themed cake for her husband Roger. Her donation was incredibly generous, she supported all four of the charities!! It was very special to meet her, she drove over an hour (each way) to pick up the cake. She is a such a thoughtful and generous person. I will never forget the experience. Thank you so much Mrs. Beilke! We are keeping your husband Roger in our thoughts and prayers.  ​

A HUGE thank you to Southwest Metro Magazine!!!  I am so grateful for the wonderful and thoughtful article (Sweet Idea) on Cakes for a Cure!  I enjoyed the whole experience. 

​Thank you to Ms. Emily Topinka, who met with me and wrote the article.  It was cool to be interviewed and talk about Cakes for a Cure.   Thank you to Ms. Emily Handy, the Art Director, and Ms. Emily J. Davis for coming to my house for a super cool photo shoot.  I really love how the pictures turned out.  And thank you to Mrs. Renée Stewart-Hester, Editor of Southwest Metro Magazine, for the amazing opportunity.  This was an incredible experience!
 
Mrs. Mindy Thomas, who saw the article and ordered a cake for her mother Ms. Marilyn Buell, for her birthday deserves a big thank you as well.  It was so fun to meet you both!  Please check out the cake in the gallery.  Your donation to the Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson’s Research is very much appreciated!
