T’s Bakery Cafe hosts Epic Purple Day Event!
PURPLE DAY CUPCAKES FOR EPILEPSY AWARENESS
On Monday, March 26, 2018 T’s Bakery Cafe hosted one heck of an event to raise both funds and awareness of the neurological condition.
Who knew that raising epilepsy awareness could be so delicious? All day T’s Bakery Cafe sold amazing, gluten-free hot cross buns, cupcakes, and cookies, 50% of all the proceeds went to the the Epilepsy Association of Calgary – Central Alberta Office. And 100% of the proceeds from a Silent Auction went to the Association as well.
The owner, operator of T’s Bakery Cafe, Tannis, is a warm, lovable pastry magician who thoughtfully uses her local business to give back to the community.
Hearing about this wonderful cause inspired more local vendors to get involved and volunteer their services. Together they set up an amazing Purple Day “Pop Up” event at the T’s Bakery Cafe restaurant. Vendors include: calligraphy by Gian Lee, event decor and rentals by Engaged by Darcie, paperie, and party supplies by The Small Details, photography by Candy Koated Design, balloons by Up Town Parties and design, styling, and coordination by Cynthia Pottinger Events. Together, with the delectable desserts created by the talented T’s Bakery Cafe team, these vendors created quite the amazing Purple Day experience. Check out these images!
Pop into to taste T’s Gluten Free treats, her Bakery Cafe is located inside the Breathing Room Yoga Studio + Cafe.
ABOUT PURPLE DAY
Cassidy Megan created the idea of Purple Day in 2008. Motivated by her own struggles with epilepsy, Cassidy’s goal is to get people talking about epilepsy in an effort to dispel myths and inform those with seizures that they are not alone.

The Mega Bucks 50 jackpot reached $607,200.00, which makes Carolyn Pelerine of Cochrane, Alberta the winner of $303,600.00.
In addition, the luxurious Tree Hugger Tiny Home Prize Package, complete with accessories by Urban Barn and valued at $163,798.00, is now owned by Mary Vincent of Red Deer.
The coveted Sorento Dream Home Prize Package, which includes furnishings and accessories by Urban Barn and boasts a total value of $1,072,624.00, has been awarded to Maxine Rumohr of Sylvan Lake.
The highly anticipated draw took place at 10:00 a.m. Thursday at the Red Deer Regional Health Foundation office, located within the Red Deer Regional Hospital Centre, with an announcement following live on Facebook, allowing participants and supporters to join in the excitement virtually.
“We are delighted to congratulate the winners of this year’s Red Deer Hospital Lottery,” said Manon Therriault, Chief Executive Officer of the Red Deer Regional Health Foundation. “The funds raised from this lottery will significantly contribute to enhancing patient care and services at the Red Deer Regional Hospital Centre. We extend our heartfelt gratitude to everyone who participated and supported this important cause.”
Proceeds from the Red Deer Hospital Lottery and Mega Bucks 50 will contribute to acquiring critically needed, state-of-the-art equipment for several units at the Red Deer Hospital.
This year’s lottery will fund equipment such as a phototherapy system, which allows parents to hold and soothe their infant while undergoing phototherapy, a cardiology case cart to monitor cardiac rhythms during stress testing, and other equipment to help provide excellent care for patients in the emergency and operating rooms at the Red Deer Hospital.
The winners of a variety of electronics were also drawn today. A full list of winners will be available in the coming days on the official lottery website at reddeerhospitallottery.ca. Prize winners who have not already been notified will receive a letter in the mail with instructions on how to claim their prizes.
The keys to the Sorento Dream Home and the Tree Hugger Tiny Home will be presented to the winners at a special ceremony this summer.
