Crème Brûlée for Cancer

In partnership with the Minnesota Swarm's efforts with the Randy Shaver Cancer Research and Community Fund, Cork's will be donating 100% of the proceeds from sales of our Crème Brûlée dessert to the fund for the entire month of April.

The Randy Shaver Cancer Research and Community Fund is in its eighth year of funding cancer-oriented and community projects within Minnesota. Their mission stands, "To support research, prevention, treatment and other needs of the cancer community throughout the State of Minnesota."

Randy Shaver, the Sports Director at KARE-11 started his foray into charitable fundraising with the annual Celebrity Golf Classic event in 1995. Then, after being diagnosed with Stage IV Hodgkin's Disease three years later, Shaver decided to take his fight to the next level. Now in remission, he works diligently to ensure that the fund remains an efficient steward of charitable resources in the fight against cancer. Boasting an administrative margin of less than 10%, over 90% of monies donated go directly to Minnesota's cancer community.

This month, we hope you'll join us in the fight against cancer by saving room for dessert!

Light It Up Blue for Autism Speaks!

During April 1st and 2nd, all proceeds from pints of Blue Moon will be donated to Autism Speaks as part of their Light It Up Blue campaign!

 

In celebration of the fourth annual World Autism Awareness Day, Light It Up Blue seeks, "to shine a light on autism by raising awareness in communities across North America." Over the evenings of April 1 and 2, important buildings around the world will be turning their lights blue for the cause! Additionally, many individual communities, businesses, and even just families will be hosting their own events to raise awareness as well as funds for Autism Speaks.

Affecting one in every 110 children (and one in every 70 boys), autism prevalence figures continue to grow. Founded in 2005, Autism Speaks is now the United States' largest autism science and advocacy organization. Autism Speaks remains, "Dedicated to funding research into the causes, prevention, treatments and a cure for autism; increasing awareness of autism spectrum disorders; and advocating for the needs of individuals with autism and their families."

 

With a cause like that, how can you not raise your glass with us?

The Hive Cares

As partners and friends of our local National Lacrosse League (NLL) team, the Minnesota Swarm, we wanted to share their efforts in the fight against cancer.

On April 16, the Swarm will host their annual Hive Cares event to coincide with that evening's game. As part of the overall NLL initiative to "Black Out Cancer", the Swarm seeks to partner with individuals and companies to secure cash donations to the Randy Shaver Cancer Research and Community Fund. There are three levels of support for the fund, and all levels include a donation of game tickets to cancer patients, survivors, and families  If you're interested in supporting the Swarm in this venture, we encourage you to visit the Hive Cares Corporate Partners page on their website.

Then, at 7:30pm, the Swarm will don commemorative helmets and jerseys as they take on the Philadelphia Wings. In addition to the larger-scale cash support for the Randy Shaver Cancer Research and Community Fund, individuals are also able to just donate tickets that will be used by cancer patients, survivors, and their families. To donate tickets to a fan that has been affected by cancer, please visit the 2011 Hive Cares Ticket Donation page.

To cap off the wonderful event, the Swarm will be auctioning off the commemorative pink jerseys and helmets worn in the game. To get in on the auction, simply visit the auction page.

A great event for a great cause! We hope you'll join us. Go Swarm!
