BETTENDORF, IOWA (May 30, 2023) — In the wake of the tragic apartment collapse that occurred in our beloved hometown of Downtown Davenport this past Sunday, Cookies and Dreams is stepping up to provide support and relief to the affected residents. We are proud to announce the launch of our special edition Davenport Disaster Relief Box, a collection of our favorite Midwest, hometown, homegrown cookie flavors.

The devastating incident has left hundreds of residents without homes & our hearts go out to the individuals & families affected by this tragedy. As part of the community, we recognize the immediate need for assistance & plan to offer our support to the QC Disaster Recovery Fund.

The Davenport Disaster Relief Box is a thoughtful curation of our most beloved cookie flavors, representing the spirit & resilience of our Midwest community. Each box contains two OG Chocolate Chip, one Puppychow Cookie, one Hawkaroo Cookie, one Texas Sheetcake Cookie, and one Summer Lovin’ Cookie — each paying homage to our hometown in various ways. This special-edition box will bel available through Thursday, June 1.

What makes this initiative even more special is that 100% of the profits from the sale of each box will be donated to the QC Disaster Recovery Fund. This fund has been established to provide immediate aid and support to the displaced residents of the apartment building.
