Corky’s Homestyle Kitchen and Bakery made a special delivery to Loma Linda University Children’s Hospital (LLUCH) for patients battling cancer. On Thursday, Oct. 15, a check for $10,000 was presented to the hospital, which was raised during the month of September – also pediatric cancer awareness month. The restaurant hosted its 2nd annual “Corky’s Cookies 4 Cancer” fundraiser selling gold ribbon cookies at their six locations. For each gold ribbon cookie sold, Corky’s donated $1 to LLUCH, and an additional 25 cents was donated from each of their regular cookies sold. “We are very proud to partner for a worthwhile endeavor,” said Corky’s director of operations, Jeff Chavez, “and we’re honored to be part of just a small difference for the courageous children and their families.” On hand for the check presentation were LLUCH patients Isabella Marquez, 7, from Moreno Valley, and Andrea Castaneda, 14, from Rialto.
