Cookie Dough for the Challenged
by Sandra Borchardt
(Baltimore, MD)
I have a neighbor who is physically and mentally challenged. I got involved with a cookie dough fundraiser because I couldnt refuse him, when he asked if I could help send him to camp. I set up a stand in the neighborhood, went from door to door and also encouraged local businesses to sell cookie dough.
To my surprise we had a huge success. My little neighborhood friend was able to go to camp, and he came back all smiles and confident. I never thought that I would be selling cookie dough, but I can honestly say that it was one of the most rewarding things that I have ever done.
