Pei Wei Cookie for $1 to support orphans

We wanted to let you all know about a great cause that runs from May 3-16! 
The Executive Chef at Pei Wei recently traveled to Ethiopia and was moved to action by what he saw.....ORPHANS! He is spearheading a trial fundraiser with Pei Wei starting today for the next two weeks (until May 16th) in every Pei Wei store in Texas and Arizona (about 70+ stores).

Go buy a yummy double chocolate chunk oatmeal cookie and the proceeds will go towards Orphans world wide in support of Gladney Center for Adoption!  They are using some of my dear friend's images,  Kristin J. Photography.  She is one of the most God-fearing women I know.

Spread the word by email, on Facebook, Twitter, your blogs etc. If this is a success, they will do it again and Eric Justice the chef for Pei Wei will take the idea to other chef's around the country! Call ahead to pre-order a dozen or more for any special occasion you have in the next week! Kids events, parties, work, bible study, teacher appreciation etc. Click here to find a location near you.

And make sure to tell those at the Pei Wei store how MUCH you appreciate them supporting orphans!!
