Cupcake Love-In: Peace, Love & Cupcakes in Scottsdale Arizona

Cupcake Love-In 2010 presents "Peace, Love & Cupcakes" in this first-ever upcake fundraising event in Arizona, to be held 10.10.10 from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the Hotel Valley Ho in Old Town Scottsdale.

Cupcake Love-In is a family-friendly event that celebrates a timeless favorite -- the cupcake -- all in the name of two great causes. An amazing 100% of the sales at the Cupcake Love-In goes to Singleton Moms and Safe Haven for Animals. Singleton Moms is a non-profit that helps single parents in their battles against cancer by providing day-to-day support. Safe Haven for Animals is a no-kill, non-profit animal shelter servicing the entire Phoenix area.

    Sounds like a great way to raise funds. I bet every one has fun.

    So many people like cupcakes that it should transfer well to a love-in fund raiser.
