Cupcake Campaign




To help raise funds for a member of the CTS family, Jessica and I are setting up a cupcake campaign. The family just found out their 3 year old son has cancer on his kidney. He just had surgery at Walter Reed to have his kidney along with the tumor removed and everything went well. Since they don't have the services here to care for him here they are having to very quickly PCS back to the states after the surgery. We are trying to raise money to help the family with the additional expenses that come with having your whole world turned upside down at a time like this.
We are making cupcakes by the 1/2 dozen for donation. If you would like to place an order, please reply to this message of email me at mcnabb_jm@yahoo.com. As long as road conditions permit, we will be able to deliver on base starting next week. Please specify yellow or chocolate cake and if you would like sprinkles or not. All cupcakes will have white buttercream icing. When placing an order, please send donations via paypal to mcnabb_jm@yahoo.com or bjbbstokes@yahoo.com. Thanks ladies and gents!
