CARE FOR A COOKIE? 
AUNT MIA’S SWEETS TO SUPPORT TOYS FOR TOTS
IN “SANTA SWEET & GREET” EVENT ON DEC. 5th

ORANGEBURG, N.Y., December 3, 2013 – Maria Caputo, sole owner/operator of Aunt Mia’s Sweets in Orangeburg, is hosting a holiday event called “Santa Sweet & Greet” on Thursday, December 5th  from 1-3 p.m. at her shop. Caputo is working to collect toys with the Rockland County Toys for Tots organization throughout the month of December; she will also be donating a percentage of her total cookie sales on December 5th to Toys for Tots in the “Cookies for a Cause” event.           

Local individuals and families are welcome to participate in the events, enjoy a free cookie sample, and have their picture taken with Santa from 1-3 p.m. People will be encouraged to donate gifts for children to the box provided by Toys for Tots from December 5th- 24th.

Caputo truly enjoys giving back to the community, especially around the holidays, so she was thrilled to announce her first annual “Santa Sweet & Greet,” as well as “Cookies for a Cause” events. “These events are all about making people smile. That is what the holidays are all about and by providing events that will make people happy is the least that I can do,” says Caputo, who further enjoys offering her cookie shop as a toy drive drop off location. “Any toy would be appreciated, we are not looking for anything specific, just a toy that will brighten up a child’s holiday,” says Caputo. ________________________________________________________________________________
