On Wedneday October 12th, 140Sweets will be hosting a "Cupcakes & Dates" charity event. On this night we will be auctioning off dates with bachelors and bachelorettes while also selling some cupcake treats to satisfy yoour sweet tooth. For those feeling lucky, you can also enter a chance to win a 50/50 raffle along with some amazing raffle prizes (TBD). All proceeds will benefit the American Cancer Sociery, DetermiNation Program.

140Sweets, established Fall of 2009, by Anna O'Brien, Joey Pasion M.D., and Sara Wingert - three friends who met on the social media network Twitter - decided to band together to give back to the community using the draw of New York City's most trendy dessert (the cupcake) and the influence of their extensive online networks. 140Sweets  aims to utilize social media outlets and engage every individual's affection for all things sweet to campaign for various causes via mouth watering social events. Their goal is to show the world that small donations, such as the cost of the cupcake, cann add up to big difference in the community. More information can be found on www.140sweets.org or follow the charity on Twitter at www.twitter.com/140sweets.

DetermiNation is the American Cancer Society's nation of athletes determined to end cancer. This powerful and inspiring movement saves lives by enabling athletes to dedicate their training and participation in marathons, triathlons, cycling races, and other endurance events to a lifesaving effort to fight a disease that has already taken too many lives. With every step taken and every mile conquered, these determined athletes are helping create a world with less cancer and more birthdays.
