Playful Pancakes for Mother's Day
Some of you may know about our wonderful 8 year old friend Cassidy who creates her Playful Pancake cat toys and sends 100% of the proceeds to the international "Kids for Kids" organization to buy goats (kids) for families in Sudan. So far her hard work and spunk has resulted in the purchase of 250 goats!
If you are looking for a unique Mother's Day Gift, consider purchasing some Playful Pancake cat toys at $4.50 each while simultaneously helping another Mother somewhere in Sudan.
This little girl's efforts have inspired other adults and businesses in our community to pitch in through the formation of a fun fundraising event called Notes for Goats. This fun community event features local musicians, food and guest speaker Patricia Parker, Chairman and Founder of Kids for Kids. If you live in the vicinity of Corvallis then we encourage you to check it out on April 19, 2008.
Growing up in rural Wisconsin, Tricia spent her summers running around barefoot with her sisters and brother. These early memories later inspired her to build a brand which embraced the joy and freedom of childhood with the health and science of minimal footwear. After 20+ years at the helm as C. Elf. O, Softstar proudly transitioned to employee-owned, and Tricia became the C.F.O. at Softstar. She is a frequent expert panelist for both e-commerce and entrepreneurship conferences.
