Drop In & Decorate: Emory Alumni Association donates cookies to Gatewood Ronald McDonald House

Cookie love, too

"Thank you doesn't begin to say how we feel about the beautiful cookies we received today. They are a work of art and a special gift for the women of Abby's House. We will give them out tomorrow at our Mother's Day luncheon. We are so excited to have them as they will add that special touch to the tables and a festive feeling for the day."

Emory Alumni Association donates cookies to Gatewood Ronald McDonald House

Allie, from the Emory Alumni Association in Atlanta, Georgia, sent along photos and this note about their first cookies-for-donation event:

Just wanted to send you a quick note to let you know that the Emory Alumni Association hosted their first annual Drop In & Decorate this on Tuesday, December 15th. The event was a huge success with all 24 members of our staff participating along with our co-workers at the Emory Annual Fund.

We decorated over 10 dozen cookies that day for the Gatewood Ronald McDonald House in Atlanta. Each cookie was beautifully decorated, unique in its design and filled with love, just like our amazing staff. We hope that our cookies will bring a smile to the face of families who may not be home for the holidays this year.

Thank you for the opportunity to participate in your program!

Special thanks to everyone at the Emory Alumni Association and Annual Fund. You've brought so much joy to the families at Ronald McDonald House!
