Celebrating 10 Years of Cook for the Cure

KitchenAid’s Stand Mixers have been a coveted kitchen tool since 1919. What makes them so fun is that they come in so many bright colors! (I have one in lilac.)
In celebration of the 10th anniversary of their Cook for the Cure program, which has raised $8 million to fight breast cancer, KitchenAid recently introduced the Raspberry Ice 5-quart Artisan Series Stand Mixer. A metallic fuchsia, Raspberry Ice joins two other mixers to raise money for breast cancer research: the baby pink Cook for the Cure model, and a white model with pink trim.
In addition to launching the Raspberry Ice mixer, KitchenAid also raises money through 1,000 Cooks for the Cure , which takes place July 15-24. Through this program, volunteers host a party at their home, office, or anywhere, and encourage guests to bring donations in lieu of gifts. You can get more information or register to be part of this “do-it-yourself” fundraising initiative on KitchenAid’s website. What better way to join the fight against breast cancer than by throwing a party?
