Some history of our organization and contributions. Texans Cookin’ for the Cure was first established in honor of Michele’s mother, Darlene Axberg, in 2005 as part of the ACS event Relay for Life. Initially all funds raised went to the ACS via Relay for Life to help fulfill our mission. After several years we realized how little of the contributions through ACS actually go to help fund research and assist those in need while undergoing treatment. The reality is, in our opinion, a large portion of donations to ACS are actually spent on “administrative” fees. The decision was then made that money raised through our cookbooks and other fundraising events would be donated to patients and their families. At this time we intend to donate all proceeds to the Texas Oncology Foundation as they share our mission. Each of our board members volunteer 100% of their time and energy thus we have no administrative fees.
We will also have advertisement pages available for business owners to purchase space in the cookbook and personal dedication space for those that wish to honor or remember a loved one with a brief history or story.
The deadline to submit recipes is April 22, 2019 and the deadline for ad space and submissions for the memorial/honor page is April 1, 2019. Thanks!
