Volunteer drivers needed! Deliver birthday cakes to at-risk youth in SF.

Save to Favorites

ORGANIZATION: Cake4Kids

Calling all drivers in San Francisco, CA! We need members of the community to help our volunteer bakers deliver birthday cakes to underprivileged children.

At Cake4Kids, we bake and deliver birthday cakes, cupcakes, cookies and brownies for foster children and at-risk youth - they might be in group homes, at a domestic violence or human trafficking shelter, in low income housing with or without a parent, or even homeless. But, not all of our bakers have cars or are able to take time away from work to deliver the beautiful sweets they have made for the children.

We need your help to deliver smiles!

All deliveries are made directly to agencies in San Francisco, Monday-Friday 8am-5pm. In some cases, a delivery can be made any time during business hours, otherwise there is a 2-hour delivery window requested by the agency.

How does it work?

- We’ll contact you to see if you are available, anywhere from 48 hours to 2 weeks in advance

- You and the baker coordinate schedules to set pick up time

- You pick up the baked goods from the baker’s home or office

- You deliver directly to an agency during the specified delivery window

- Email us to let us know delivery is complete


What we ask of you:

- You must be 18 years of age or older

- You need to have a valid driver’s license, your own vehicle, and auto insurance

- Attend 1 short video conference orientation
