TAKING A BITE OUT OF CANCER

Cupcake Fundraiser a success!

On the morning of April 14, the Canadian Cancer Society (CCS) teamed up with Winnipeg Relay For Life sponsors Curve 94.3 and The Cupcake Corner for a delicious fundraiser! Curve’s Jay and Andrea from the morning show, CCS staff, volunteers, and Relay for Life committee members stood on the windy corner of Confusion Corner during the morning rush hour and sold 500 dozen cupcakes. That’s 6,000 cupcakes!

Each dozen sold for $15, with $7 from each sale going directly towards Relay For Life, bringing us $3500 closer towards our goal!






















The success of this event would not have been possible without the support we received from our wonderful sponsors and volunteers!
We would like to thank the following:

The Cupcake Corner for initiating the idea and for the long hours spent making the cupcakes
Curve 94.3 for bringing in their energetic team to assist and for airing live on location from the sale. They also donated reusable bags to give away.
Winnipeg Free Press for providing free copies of their newspaper to all the supporters
MB Pork for donating stress pigs that went in the goody bags.
MB Lotteries for donating tents.
Cornelia Bean for donating the tea
All the CCS staff and volunteers who helped out!
