DUBLIN, Calif., Oct. 16, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- This holiday season, Challenge Butter is proud to partner with Cookies for Kids' Cancer to support their mission of improving treatments for pediatric cancer. The "Challenge for a Cure” initiative invites everyone to join the fight by hosting bake sales or making donations to raise much-needed funds for childhood cancer research.

Individuals and communities can easily sign up to host their bake sale and receive bake sale kits, including guidance from the Cookies for Kids' Cancer team to ensure success. For those who don't have time to host an event, you can still make a difference by donating directly to fund life-saving research within the custom microsite.
