Raising Funds For Wyoming’s First Ever Childhood Cancer Camp!

The Wyoming Department of Health has announced that they are looking for great recipes to put into a cookbook that will be  sold to help raise money for Wyoming's first ever camp fully devoted to helping children with Cancer and their families. The Wyoming Department of Health would greatly appreciate your support in their efforts to help young children from all over Wyoming who are struggling with Cancer.

Wyoming residents are asked to submit their favorite healthy recipes for a cookbook that will be sold to help support the camp. “Along with the recipes, we’d like to collect stories about how cancer has affected folks, drawings and pictures of cancer survivors to make the book more meaningful,” said Jessica Perez, outreach coordinator with the Wyoming Department of Health’s cancer control program.

Here is a list of instructions for recipe submissions:

• Type or print clearly in ink
• One recipe per form
• If more room is needed, use another sheet of the same size paper and staple together
• List all ingredients in order of use in ingredient list and directions
• Do not use abbreviations; please write out all measurements
• Include container sizes, for example 16-ounce package, 24-ounce can
• Keep directions in paragraph form, not in steps
• Use names of ingredients in the directions such as “Combine flour and sugar” rather than statements such as “Combine the first three ingredients”
• Include temperatures for cooking, chilling, baking and or freezing times

The deadline to submit recipes is May 13. For a recipe entry form contact Jessica Perez at 307-777-7362 begin_of_the_skype_highlighting 307-777-7362 end_of_the_skype_highlighting or at jessica.perez@health.wyo.gov. You can also visit www.fightcancerwy.com
