My name is Maggie Cipriano, a senior at Glenbard West. I have teamed up with Fire Wine for a brunch, the Gold Brunch, to raise funds, as well as awareness for children's cancer research. All of the money donated will go to St. Baldrick’s which is an organization that gives grants to scientists to search for new treatments and a cure for childhood cancer.
For every $25 donated here through the St. Baldricks website, the donor family will receive one ticket at the door the day of the event.
I have personally been involved with St. Baldrick’s for four years, since my sister was diagnosed with cancer. She was diagnosed with Osteosarcoma when she was 17, which pushed me to begin fundraising. Through St. Baldrick’s I have shaved my head, made and sold shirts and now Fire Wine is generously donating everything to make this event possible. Through hosting this brunch, I hope to inform people on how extremely underfunded children's cancer research is, and to save children’s lives by reaching my goal of $5,000 for St. Baldricks. Join me at the Gold Brunch, Sunday, February 28 from 11:00am to 1:00pm at Fire Wine, 433 North Main Ave, Glen Ellyn.
Tickets are $25 and can be purchased here or at Fire Wine.
If you would like to donate wine for the wine pull or anything for the silent auction, or buy tickets, please contact me at

sandy@fireandwine.net. Your donation is golden.
Thank you,
Maggie Cipriano
