Covid Cookies for medical staff
Donation protected
I'm hoping to spread a little joy to the front-line health workers doing it tough in Sydney’s most affected COVID-19 postcodes, by sending cookies of positivity as a way of saying thanks.
The “You Are Awesome” cookies, complete with a smiley sunshine face designed by Kate Toon (www.katetoon.com) and her team, have been created with the help of Adri from Adri’s Gingerbread ( www.adrisgingerbread.com) another Central Coast business, and are Kate’s way of showing appreciation to the nurses who are doing it tough.
“I know it’s not an earth-shattering contribution, but like all small business owners right now, I’m doing it tough. I wanted to do something that would show the frontline workers they’re appreciated. And bring a little smile to their day,” says Kate.
Initially, hundreds of the cookies will be sent to the three hospitals most affected by the Covid crisis: Westmead, Liverpool and Nepean Hospitals.
“We spoke to some nurses, and they said often the night shift workers miss out, so we’re sending different boxes for different shifts, in the hope that everyone will get to share in this little sweet moment of sunshine,” says Kate.
“I thought about an COVID-19 message, but in the end, I decided what we all need right now is a ray of sunshine and positivity. A break from the doom and gloom.”
200 cookies have already been sent out by Kate herself, with 50 donated by Adri, who also covered the cost of postage.
Your donations will cover the cost of cookies and postage.
Please note : Adri is kindly offering the cookie at wholesale price to reduce the costs.
