How Eleni’s Social Good is Baking a Difference

Cookies for Kids’ Cancer is committed to raising funds to help develop new, improved and less toxic treatments for pediatric cancer. When 2-year-old Liam Witt was diagnosed with pediatric cancer, his parents Larry and Gretchen were shocked at the lack of treatment tailored to children. Eleni worked with many other pastry chefs to lend a helping hand to this wonderful organization on National Cookie Day, raising $4,000 dollars to help fight pediatric cancer. She also created a range of special edition ‘designer’ cookies and donated 100% of the proceeds to Cookies for Kids’ Cancer.

We proudly donate 10% of every online Pink Sugar Cookie purchase to Breastcancer.org. It is an education and support lifeline for millions of people affected by breast cancer. As a digital resource, it is available to everyone, in all corners of the world, at any time of the day or night. It helps people find reliable answers to questions about their risk, diagnosis, treatment plan, surgical options, and more, so they can live a full life beyond breast cancer.

Everyone at Eleni’s is a HUGE animal lover!

Eleni’s has supported NYC’s beloved Central Park Zoo events for 4 years by providing nearly 500 cookies each year at its annual fundraiser.

The Fund for Park Avenue works to ensure one of Manhattan’s most famous avenues remains beautifully maintained for all citizens to enjoy. The Fund relies solely on contribution from the Manhattan community, and plants, lights and looks after the trees and flowers on the Park Avenue malls through its beautification programs. Eleni’s cookies supported The Fund for Park Avenue‘s fundraising initiatives.

We helped the David Rockefeller to celebrate his 90th birthday and supported the MoMA’s Annual Party in the Garden fundraiser by delivering over 800 intricately designed and decorated sheet cookies inspired by Mr. Rockefeller’s personal collection.
