FunkyChunky’s Ronni’s Popcorn Raises Over $2,000 For Hope Chest For Breast Cancer Foundation
Two years ago when FunkyChunky lost their founder and creator, Ronni Feuer, to breast cancer they created a flavor to honor her memory – Ronni’s Popcorn. 10% of proceeds are donated to a local organization called Hope Chest for Breast Cancer Foundation. In 2013 FunkyChunky raised a total of $2,085.64. The company presented the check to Hope Check on May 22, 2014.
Hope Chest is a Minnesota based company that works to relieve local breast cancer patients and their family of financial distress so they can focus on what is more important—healing. With their Hope Chest Emergency Assistance Program, they provide the quickest access to help with the most urgent needs of breast cancer patients by paying rent, utilities, childcare and transportation to treatment. In addition they deliver Hope Chest Meals that Heal for the Mom and age appropriate food for all the children. For every purchase 10% of sales go to Hope Chest, with 100% of every dollar raised going directly to women facing financial hardships while undergoing breast cancer treatment.
