Thank you for showing interest in participating in Vampire Penguin Twin Hickory's “Desserts for a Cause” neighborhood fundraising program. Vampire Penguin Shaved Snow & Desserts proudly opened in the West-end of Richmond, Virginia. We take great pride in being a part of our community and are very grateful for the opportunities and support it has offered us throughout our lifetime. In return it would be our honor to help support the various community organizations and programs that make Richmond a great place for people to live, grow and visit.
Every week, Monday through Thursday, VP will be hosting a fundraising effort to help support a selected organization ranging from afterschool programs, community service and improvement organizations.
HOW IT WORKS: Vampire Penguin Twin Hickory will proudly display, next to our cash register, your decorated donation box throughout the duration of our business day.
