Bake birthday cakes for foster children/at risk youth in San Mateo County, California

Save to Favorites

ORGANIZATION: Cake4Kids

Has the thought of a child without a birthday cake ever crossed your mind?

If you're like most people, it hasn't and you are not alone. Cake4Kids helps foster kids and at-risk youth feel special at least one day a year. We bake and deliver free birthday cakes to foster care and at-risk youth, who wouldn't otherwise have a birthday celebration.

We urgently need bakers in San Mateo, who are willing to bake and deliver cakes for children in their community.

Please note we are only in Northern California so only need volunteers in that region.

Make a difference in a child's life - one birthday cake at a time!
