Sip, Nibble and Shop for a Cause: Mixellaneous Boutique’s “Girls Night Out” Benefits Breast and Gynecological Cancer Research and Care at MD Anderson Cancer Center at Cooper

Boutique to donate 15 percent of all purchases to Cooper’s Pink Roses Teal Magnolias Fund which supports research and supportive services for cancer patients

CAMDEN – Mixellaneous boutique and mini-department store in Marlton will host a Sip, Nibble and Shop event at 6 p.m. on Friday, Sept. 30 to benefit breast and gynecological cancer research and care at MD Anderson Cancer Center at Cooper. Fifteen percent of the evening’s proceeds will go to the Cooper Foundation’s Pink Roses and Teal Magnolias Fund.

The evening also serves to build awareness and excitement in the community for the Cooper Foundation’s upcoming Pink Roses Teal Magnolias Brunch.

“Support for Pink Roses Teal Magnolias continues to grow across the region,” said Susan Bass Levin, President and CEO of The Cooper Foundation, the philanthropic, community outreach and community development arm of Cooper University Health Care. “We are grateful to our community partners, Mixellaneous owner, Michelle Stander and our hosts for the evening, Josephine McGinniss and Cyndy McCormick, a co-chair and a host at our Pink Roses Teal Magnolias Brunch, respectively, for joining in the fight against breast and gynecologic cancer and for helping to ensure patients have access to the world-class cancer care MD Anderson Cooper delivers.”

Over six years, the Foundation has raised more than $3 million dollars for the Pink and Teal Fund, which supports research, complementary medicine, support services, survivorship programs and Cooper’s patient-in-need fund which assists patients in financial distress with transportation, child care, prescription co-pays and other immediate needs at the MD Anderson Cancer Center at Cooper.

“As a cancer survivor who received my care at Cooper, this is my way of giving back and not forgetting the journey of those who are currently battling the disease,” said McGinniss, a 3 ½ year cancer survivor.

The event will include music, cocktails, food, a designer trunk show and giveaways, unique gifts and fashion.

The boutique will also donate 15 percent of any purchases in which the buyer mentions “Cooper” between now and Oct. 7th.
