Jennie Dundas and Alexis Miesen of Brooklyn's Blue Marble aren’t the only ones who think that areas of Africa might somehow benefit from some ice cream action: visit the Astor Place location of Cold Stone Creamery (between Broadway and Lafayette) today from 5-7 p.m. and make a purchase. It’ll benefit Orphans International Tanzania. Here’s the idea: the organization will receive 15% of the store’s profits during that time period if their gross is up to $500, and 20% of the profits if Stone Cold Creamery brings in anything over $500. So go get some ‘mix-ins’ and help someone else out in the process.
