The Metuchen Cookie Walk started in 2015 as a holiday fundraiser for the Fuccile Foundation, which provides financial assistance to local families impacted by tragedy. The premise of the Cookie Walk is simple: bake, buy, give. Cookie Walk attendees purchase either a small ($10) or large ($20) box(es) to fill with homemade cookies.
In 2015, over 5,500 homemade cookies were donated and sold. In 2016, the event grew to over 15,000 cookies and raised over $7,500 for the Fuccile Foundation and local families in need.
