Cookies for Kids’ Cancer, a non-profit organization that raises funds to support research for pediatric cancer, received a very special Valentine. On February 14, 2013, Baltimore-based Carroll Independent Fuel LLC held a bake sale at three of its corporate offices in Baltimore. The money raised by Carroll employees was matched by glass containers business, Bormioli Rocco Glass Company and Carroll Independent Fuel to donate more than $1600 to the organization.

Cookies for Kids' Cancer uses local bake sales to raise funds to develop new and improved treatments for pediatric cancer.   The money is used to support the efforts of doctors and scientists who are working to create less toxic and more effective treatments for children battling cancer at comprehensive cancer like Memorial Sloan-Kettering, Dana Farber, Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia, St Jude, Texas Children's, and other world class centers across the country.

The employees of the Carroll Independent Fuel are committed to giving back to the community they serve. The donation to the Maryland Food Bank, Carroll employees have raised money for Muscular Dystrophy Association, Baltimore Animal Rescue and Care Shelter (BARCS), Cookies for Kids' Cancer, Johns Hopkins Children’s Center, Moveable Feast and more.
