Do Something Great...

OXO's "virtual cookies" campaign for Cookies for Kids' Cancer (CFKC) involves baking treats and sharing photos on social media with #OXOGoodCookies, where OXO donates $1 per cookie (up to $100,000) to fund pediatric cancer research, turning online baking into real support for kids.

You can participate by posting pictures or videos of your homemade goodies, tagging @OXO and @Cookies4kids, and using the hashtag to help raise funds and awareness for vital treatments for children with cancer.

No parent should have to lose a child. But parents ARE losing their beloved children daily to all kinds of horrible things, including cancer. No matter the age of your child, you can make a difference in the lives and research of children suffering from cancer by baking goodies (cookies!!) and posting the pics online—across all your social media—and OXO will match $1 per cookie up to $100,000/year to fund pediatric cancer research.

Of all the ‘good causes’ one can donate time and effort to, what cause could be better than helping children with cancer?

Join me, the Genre Gypsy, in making a difference this year—and every year to come—by sharing pics of the cookies you bake (no matter what time of year) online! Remember to use #OXOGoodCookies and tag @OXO and @Cookies4kids to ensure your cookies become part of the cure.

My daughter, Rebecca, and I are baking soft gingerbread cookies and some old-fashioned French Madeleines this year.

Let's help overcome cancer in kids—one cookie at a time.
