With this gift basket of epic deliciousness, you will have more than enough chances to perfect your Oreo eating technique. Did we mention there is also Chips Ahoy and Fig Newtons? This is some serious cookie heaven going on here people.

Win this basket and you will have your own cookie stash to do with what you wish. Better keep this post short since my drooling is sure to short out the keyboard.

Who is Gwennie and What is "Gwennie's Gifts"?


Sometimes, the unthinkable happens and cancer attacks an 18 month-old infant.

Gwendelyn Marra was found to have a malignant tumor on her liver in April of 2013. She was diagnosed with neuroblastoma, the most common cancer in infancy. She is Stage three and
considered high risk. She has currently just finished her third of chemotherapy and has
also undergone several surgeries including a stem cell transplant, radiation, and
immunotherapy. She travels to both Robert Wood Johnson and Children's Hospital of
Philadelphia for her treatments.

"Gwennie's Gifts" is a group of friends and colleagues of the Marra family. We have come together to organize an event to help with the devastating financial responsibilities that a young family experiences when their child IS in need of dramatic medical attention. We are currently soliciting goods and
services for our Marra-Thon Fundraiser scheduled for Saturday, September 14, 2013 at
Gold's Gym in Howell, NJ. All donations will directly benefit the Marra family, namely
Gwendelyn.

The Marras have chosen the name "Gwennie's Gifts" for this foundation so that when
Gwendelyn is well, she too may passon the amazing prayers and gifts that were given to
her.

We would love a donation from you, your company or anyone you may know who would be so generous to contribute to this cause. Please take a moment to contemplate the tremendous impact your company can have on Gwendelyn and the Marra family by contributing to the Silent Auction and/or attending our "Marra-thon for Gwennie" fundraiser September 14, 2013 at Gold's Gym in Howell, NJ.

Thank you for your consideration - it is much appreciated!

Marra-thon: A Fundraiser for Gwendelyn Marra Sept. 14, 2013

Join us on September 14, 2013 for the "Marra-thon"! Silent Auction items can be viewed beginning September 8th with the selection of winners on September 14th at 1 p.m.
