Kilwin's Chocolates, Fudge & Ice Cream just celebrated its 2nd birthday last month. The fine owners, Paul and Kirsten Nykamp say they “are truly grateful to work and live in such an amazing community.” People like them make a community so nice to live in. They recently asked themselves how they could give back some of the love that has been given to them and as a result, came "Scoops for a Cause".

Now, they have teamed up with two great causes in the community to help support their goals through selling Kilwin's treats. Here is how it works...

On Monday, July 27 Kilwin’s will be donating 20% of their total sales from 11:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. to Jason Thompson (a local soccer coach and small business owner who found out he had a rare form of cancer on 6/2/09. Jason is uninsured.). A website as been created for Jason at www.kickingitforjason.com. They have asked Jason to create his favorite sundae which consists of toffee, butterscotch and vanilla ice cream (YUM!) and Kilwin’s will be highlighting Jason's sundae exclusively for that day only. Jason's family and friends are spreading the word for this event!

On Tuesday, July 28 Kilwin’s is partnering up with Destin Harvest and from 11:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. they will donate the EXACT AMOUNT of ice cream sold at Kilwin's to Destin Harvest! A Destin Harvest representative will be available (specific time TBD) to answer questions and to explain what Destin Harvest is all about. Be sure to stop on by and drop off any food that you may have lying around as there will be a "Needs Drop Off" available at the store. The Nykamps say, “It is our hope that we can help these sweet causes by providing a remedy for the sweet tooth.”
