Baking For Charity!

Partners in Health Bake Sale!!


This past weekend, I helped out with preparations for a bake sale that took place in the Coop.  A friend of mine, Danielle Bynoe, organized the entire event in collaboration with a number of campus organizations to raise money for Partners In Health.  The organization aims to eradicate HIV/AIDS in Haiti and the Dominican Republic, so it was completely worth spending a few hours on Sunday to help out with the baking process.  

The result of the laborious work that went into the bake sale was a HUGE spread of cupcakes, cookies, and other treats.  I made cranberry-chocolate chip-oatmeal cookies which sold out in a flash!  It was really great to take even a small part in helping to raise money for the organization.
