Leukemia & Lymphoma Society at Sweet Surrender
Seriously? Yes, seriously. On Thursday, April 17, 2008 you'll be able to combine your extreme love of Sweet Surrender's offerings with your desire to do good in our community. It's almost too good to be true.
Sweet Surrender Dessert Café will host "A Sweet Night: A Benefit for The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society." From 6 PM to 10 PM, a sampling of desserts will be offered for $12 per person. A portion of the event's proceeds will be given to The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society.
Whole cakes and other prizes will be raffled off throughout the evening. Tickets for the raffle can be purchased for $1.00 each. All of the proceeds from the raffle will go directly to The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. Donations for raffle prizes are still being accepted.
In addition to great desserts and great prizes, great music will be played by Jason Hasch at 8 PM.
"The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society is a wonderful organization," said owner, Jessica Haskell. "They were a big help to me during my own battle with Hodgkin's Lymphoma. I want to return the favor."
Haskell, age 29, is a three time survivor of Hodgkin's Lymphoma. Originally diagnosed in May of 2000, she battled through recurrences in 2003 and 2004. After undergoing chemo, radiation and a stem cell transplant, she has been cancer free for three years.
