Not only will the American Lung Association receive a portion of the proceeds, but the program enables Postcake customers to get an additional 10 percent off or free shipping during the holiday season.
“The joy of giving is the spirit of the holiday season. It is a time of celebration, and what better way to give back than by donating a portion of sales to an organization we strongly support,” said Bo Sundstrom, Swedish Master Baker and the creator of the Postcake. "To reduce the impact of lung disease is an important calling for us and we feel it reflects the values of our customers as well. Sending a Postcake is a simple way to reach out and get friends, relatives and colleagues involved in the fight for healthy lungs and healthy air.”
“The American Lung Association is grateful for the support from Postcake Company this holiday season,” said Jim Gooden, National Volunteer Chair of the American Lung Association. “This is a wonderful opportunity to give a delicious gift and contribute to our more than a century old fight for healthy lungs and healthy air.”
“People can support a great cause and enjoy an assortment of flavors, such as Honey-Glazed Hazelnut, Dark Chocolate Sacher, and Almond Citrus with Raspberry Swirl, and you can buy the cakes online very easily” says Sundstrom. Following the footsteps of the Postcake recent segment on the Rachael Ray Show, we look forward to this partnership with the American Lung Association,” adds Sundstrom.
