Apples Bakery Celebrates National Pie Day
National Pie Day is officially January 23, 2009, but Apple’s Bakery will be celebrating in a special way all week from January 18 until January 24, 2009. For the second year, Apple’s will donate $3.00 from every nine-inch pie sold to the National Multiple Sclerosis Society.
This promotion is meant to honor my mother, Alberta. She was a fantastic pie maker and is a person living with MS. At 83 years old, she is a shining example of how to lead a full life with this challenge and continues to maintain a positive attitude.
In 2008, we donated almost $1,000 was donated to the National MS Society. This year, Apple’s has a goal of selling 1,000 pies throughout the week. Pies can be purchased in-store, online, or by calling 309-693-3522. Advanced orders will be accepted in-store and by telephone. 2009 National Pie Day commemorative T-shirts will also be available at the bakery!
