Anniveraries - Deirdre’s House

Thursday, April 6th, 2006

Anniveraries are very important. Whether they are to celebrate a marriage, a birthday, a retirement or a big purchase, they are a wonderful way to relive important days in life. I was recently asked to create a cake for a very important anniversary, for Deirdre’s House, a Center for children in Morris County who have suffered abuse, neglect or witnessed domestic violence. Dierdre's HoueThey are celebrating their 10 year anniversary with a Rededication of the Center in conjunction with the Morris County Prosecutor’s Office and National Crime Victim’s Rights Week on April 26, 2006. Their work is very impressive, you can check it out at http://www.dobcac.org/.
Anyway - I’m very excited to be a part of the rededication and to donate my services to such a great cause. I’ll definitely post a picture after the event.
