Welcome
Treats & Sweets for Turner Syndrome is a great way to raise awareness about Turner Syndrome (TS) and to provide much needed funds for Turner Syndrome Foundation (TSF), a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, whose mission is to educate the medical profession about TS and to provide support to those affected by TS.  As you probably know, most people have never heard of Turner Syndrome unless they have TS or know someone who does.  What better way to spread the word about TS than with something as simple and fun as a bake sale!!!  And all proceeds from the sale go directly to raising awareness and providing support.

Our Story
So many people from across the country were interested in helping TSF out but just didn’t know how or couldn’t make it to one of our TEAM TSF athletic events.  We came up with the Treats & Sweets for Turner Syndrome bake sale as a simple and fun way for those affected by TS to help raise awareness in their local community and have fun while doing it. I had recently contributed to a friend’s bake sale and thought “Wow… this is what we need to do!”  And here you have it… Treats & Sweets for Turner Syndrome!  And really, anyone can do it! 

How to Host a Treats & Sweets for TS Bake Sale

So, are you ready to get started?  We have lots of items to help you out with your bake sale. First you will need to sign up as a volunteer and complete an event form. 

Once you have registered as a host of a Treats & Sweets for Turner Syndrome bake sale, you can begin by recruiting bakers, volunteers and even donations!  You can tell your story and let your family, friends, neighbors, churches, and schools know what you are doing and ask them to help out by baking sweets, spreading the word, helping out the day of the bake sale or simply by making a donation. Also, be sure to ask your local bakeries and supermarkets to donate baked goods as well…you will be amazed at how many people will want to help!  Click here for our Baker’s Donation Letter.

Once your team is assembled, you will need to pick your location!  You should choose an area that is high traffic like a shopping center, a mall, a big sports event or even a local community event that is sure to pull a big crowd.  Please be sure to get permission from the owner of the property or event.  Click here for our permission letter template.

So you’ve got your team, you’ve got your location now it’s time to promote, promote, promote!  In order to have a successful bake sale, you will really need to promote it.  Contact your local newspapers, radio and TV stations and ask them to promote your bake sale.  Hang flyers, advertise in church bulletins, newsletters, send out an email blast to your family and friends and ask them to forward it to their family and friends.  Blog about it, post it on your social network.
