Mind, Music, & Movement Foundation presents Cookies ‘N Creme Luncheon

The Mind, Music, & Movement Foundation for Neurological Disorders (M3F) will host “Cookies ‘N Creme,” a powerful fundraising luncheon on Monday, January 12, 2026, at Frenchman’s Reserve Country Club in Palm Beach Gardens. M3F is honored to recognize longtime supporter Frances Fisher as Honorary Chair, with Beth Elgort, M3F Founder and CEO, and Shelby Crockett serving as Co-Chairs.

This meaningful event will celebrate the stories of two groundbreaking women: Lynne Greene, former Global Group President of The Estée Lauder Companies, and Kathleen King, founder of Tate’s Bake Shop, who rose to the top of their fields through resilience, tenacity, and hard work.

Guests will enjoy a gourmet luncheon, a silent auction, and an uplifting, unscripted conversation with Greene and King as they share lessons learned from their journeys of perseverance, reinvention, and impact.

“Kathleen and Lynne exemplify the kind of resilience and determination we see every day in the individuals we serve at M3F,” said Beth Elgort, Founder and President of the Mind, Music, & Movement Foundation. “They’ve overcome significant challenges to rise to the top of their industries, and that same spirit of perseverance is what fuels the progress we witness through our programs. This luncheon is not just a celebration of their stories, but a testament to the power of hope, hard work, and community support.”

Lynne Greene is a pioneer in the beauty industry who led global brands including Clinique, Origins, and Aveda during her tenure as Global Group President at The Estée Lauder Companies. She’s been recognized not only for driving global growth but also for mentoring the next generation of female leaders and promoting ethical, values-driven business practices.

Kathleen King’s journey began as an 11-year-old baking cookies on her family’s Long Island farm—and took a dramatic turn when she lost her first business. Undeterred, she started again from scratch and built Tate’s Bake Shop into a nationally beloved brand, ultimately selling it for $500 million. Her comeback story is one of grit, reinvention, and never giving up.

Tickets are $200 per person, and space is limited. Proceeds from the event will benefit M3F’s arts-based programs for individuals living with neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s, and MS. The Foundation provides chorus, yoga, movement, drumming, art, and caregiver support programs that foster wellness, mobility, and connection.

Sponsorships are available, and local businesses or individuals interested in supporting this inspiring event are encouraged to reach out to Mai Fox at mai@mindmusicmovement.org. For more information and to reserve tickets, visit m3f.org.
