Cookies for a Cause fundraiser a sweet success

On Friday, December 13, 2024, the Women of the Wasco Community Church hosted their second Cookies for a Cause fundraiser, spreading love and holiday cheer throughout the community. This outreach ministry brought together the talents and hearts of many to make a difference for a local family facing medical challenges this season.

The women baked their favorite cookies in the days leading up to the event, and the night before the sale, an enthusiastic assembly line came together to fill dozens of cookie boxes. Each box was lovingly packed with one dozen assorted treats. While the initial goal was to prepare 80 boxes-40 for each of the two fundraiser locations-this incredible team surpassed expectations!

Cookies were sold simultaneously at Huskey's 97 Market in Moro and Wasco City Hall, beginning at 8 a.m. By 10 a.m., only five boxes remained, a testament to the community's generosity and support.

Thanks to the hard work and dedication of all involved, 100% of the proceeds were delivered directly to a local family during this holiday season. This event was a beautiful reminder of how much can be accomplished when many hands come together for a shared purpose.

Thank you to everyone who baked, packed, and purchased cookies. Your kindness made this event a sweet success!"
