The annual fundraiser known as “Cookies For Choice” is set to kick off in Savannah, with organizers aiming to raise $15,000 for Planned Parenthood Southeast (PPSE). This initiative involves participation from approximately two dozen local chefs and restaurants, showcasing the city’s culinary talent while supporting women’s health and reproductive rights.
Last year, the event raised $11,000, a testament to the strong community support for the cause. Fundraising efforts began on Monday with pre-orders for the cookies, and organizers expect a rapid sellout of these treats as cookie enthusiasts are eager to contribute to this important initiative.
This year marks the fifth iteration of the event, which has successfully raised over $70,000 since its inception in 2019. Each dollar collected from cookie sales is donated directly to Planned Parenthood Southeast, reinforcing the organization’s critical services in the community.
Natasha Gaskill, the owner of SIXBY, a local bread maker and sandwich shop, is behind the “Cookies For Choice” initiative. She and her team have coordinated with a total of 27 bakers to participate, highlighting Savannah’s dynamic culinary scene. The event not only promotes community involvement but also provides an opportunity for local bakers to collaborate towards a common goal.
Customers interested in participating can easily place their cookie orders online. Once ordered, they can choose to pick up their cookies at a participating restaurant of their choice. The combination of convenience and delicious offerings is designed to engage a wide audience, making it an attractive way for community members to show their support for women’s health.
Through events like “Cookies For Choice,” the Savannah community is able to rally around critical issues regarding women’s health and reproductive rights. The partnership between local chefs and restaurateurs establishes a tangible way for individuals to play a significant role in advocating for these causes.
As the event progresses, updates regarding the number of cookies sold and the current fundraising total will be made available on the official event platform. The organizers encourage everyone to participate, enjoy delicious cookies, and support a vital service that assists many people within the community.
The fundraising period is currently open, and with the anticipation of cookies selling out quickly, those interested should act fast to secure their orders.
