A Cupcake to fight Childhood Cancer
September is Childhood Cancer Awareness Month and Go4theGoal wants to help in the fight! Before the age of 20, one in every 330 Americans develop cancer and every school day 46 young people are diagnosed, hoping to become a survivor. Today, because of collaborative research, 78% of childhood cancer patients overall will survive. Yet, there is still more work to be done to improve the cure rates for all pediatric cancer types and to pioneer new treatments with fewer long-term side effects.
Go 4 the Goal,(https://go4thegoal.org/ ) is a foundation that’s teaming up with local businesses to spread awareness and raise money for cancer research in honor of September’s National Pediatric Cancer Awareness Month.
Cupcakes by Carousel,(https://cupcakesbycarousel.com/ ) of Ridgewood, NJ is one of the local businesses partnering with Go4theGoal to raise money to find a cure. For the month of September, they will be donating 100% of all the profits of the cupcakes designed by Blake and Mikey, two Bergen County children currently fighting cancer. We’d love to spread the word by having more people stop by Cupcakes by Carousel (192 East Ridgewood Avenue, Ridgewood, NJ— next to the movie theater) on Sunday, September 18th and 19th from 11am to 3pm—plus ALL SEPTEMBER LONG! Both kids will also be outside the shop selling their tasty creations at the Ridgewood Street Fair.
