Dining In™, a recognized restaurant food delivery service leader, will feature Dancing Deer's fresh baked cookies, cakes and brownies at an exclusive discount on its website at www.diningin.com. Dining In™ and Dancing Deer will donate 10 percent of every gift sold to the Ovarian Cancer National Alliance, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that leads the national movement to conquer ovarian cancer. Philanthropic gifts can be bought online at www.diningin.com.

Michael Hackel, founder and CEO of Dining In™, wanted to support a cause that would be relevant to his customers in Dallas, Chicago, Philadelphia and Boston. "I give back to a variety of charities in Boston," says Hackel, "but I wanted to develop a philanthropic voice for Dining In™ and this is a great opportunity." Dining In™ is the fastest growing food delivery service in the country.

Dancing Deer Baking Co. has built its brand around being a philanthropic and environmental player. The national baking company, under the leadership of co-founder and CEO Trish Karter, has given thousands of dollars to ending family homelessness through its non-profit partner, One Family, Inc. and many more thousands of cookies to a variety of causes in the Greater Boston area. Dancing Deer is also partnering with the Pine Street Inn, a shelter and resource for homeless mothers and children, this Mother's Day.

The Ovarian Cancer National Alliance is the nation's voice for ovarian cancer issues. Now starting its 10th Anniversary, the Alliance unites local, state and national organizations in a movement to increase public and professional understanding of ovarian cancer and to advocate for more effective diagnostics, treatments and a cure.
