Drop In & Decorate

Earth Day cookies

A great idea from Tidymom.net, if you're planning a Drop In & Decorate® event this month!

A Maryland event donates 200 cookies to local crisis intervention center

A few weeks ago Jen hosted her second Drop In & Decorate® event, with kids and their parents from her MOMS group baking, decorating and donating 200 cookies to the Grassroots Crisis Intervention Center in Columbia, Maryland.

Please hop over to Jen's blog to see the full set of photos of these adorable decorators, and the amazing cookies they donated.

Special thanks to Jen, her friends who baked and all of the kids who decorated cookies. We love it when hosts really connect with their recipient agencies!

In Indiana, cookies help spread love and caring for Valentine's Day

Shari hosted her first Drop In & Decorate® event, delivering cookies for Valentine's Day to Ronald McDonald House at Riley, in Indianapolis. She shared these adorable photos and a report:

Just wanted to thank everyone for their help and participation. I think our little cookie decorators did a wonderful job. 

The people at the Ronald McDonald House at Riley were so appreciative. There were a couple of families in the house when we delivered them and they were so excited to have something sweet to melt their troubles away. One family has ten children and one of their girls was under Riley's care.

I had no idea they needed so much help from the community to make things warm and inviting for the families during hard times. You can donate food pantry items, bottled water, make lunch/ dinner, etc.

We donated over 150 cookies and they said they would be surprised if the cookies lasted more than a 24 hours!

Thanks again for your help. This was fun!

Shari, what a wonderful decorating party! Thanks to all of the talented kids and adults who made so many families at Ronald McDonald House feel loved for Valentine's Day.
