Emerson Hospital Auxiliary Annual Cookie Sale on Dec. 9

The Emerson Hospital Auxiliary will hold its annual Cookies by the Pound sale on Monday, Dec. 9, 10 a.m. to 1 p.m., in the North Assembly rooms. A wide array of home-baked, donated cookies, bars, chocolates, breads and jellies will be available.

“Cookies by the Pound is a great tradition in which the hospital offers the community an opportunity to celebrate the holiday season with us,” said Christine Schuster, president and CEO of Emerson. “So many members of the community spend endless hours baking their most special holiday treats. Sweets are donated to the hospital for the enjoyment of patients, staff and the community, who might not have time to bake. And all the proceeds are donated to the hospital. What a joyful experience for all of us.”

For more information about Cookies by the Pound, please contact Julie Turner at (781) 275-0742.

The Emerson Hospital Auxiliary supports the hospital through community awareness, patient support and fundraising activities. Anyone interested in becoming a member or learning about the Auxiliary should contact Karen McCarthy at (978) 371-2133.
