Bake at home, then deliver! Help at-risk youth in Attleboro celebrate their birthday
ORGANIZATION: Cake4Kids
Please visit the new page to apply.
At Cake4Kids we bake and deliver birthday cakes, cupcakes, cookies, bars and brownies to foster children and at-risk youth -- and all of the baking and decorating is done by you, the volunteers! We aim to raise their self-esteem with this seemingly simple gift on their special day. We support all sorts of agencies in our community - homeless, human trafficking, domestic violence, transitional housing, and foster care. We are proud to bring our service to the Greater Boston area -- now serving youth in Attleboro.
If you like to bake and decorate cakes, you would love to volunteer with Cake4Kids. We don't require any time commitment - bake 1 cake or 10 cakes a year...it's up to you. You choose which child's request to sign up for, based on the theme, type of dessert, and delivery time and location. When the sweets are complete, you deliver them to the local social services agency that requested them.
Note: All deliveries are to your partner agencies, Monday-Friday during business hours
It's fun and rewarding and truly the "sweetest" volunteer opportunity you can participate in.

Mission Statement
What We Do: We deliver smiles to underserved youth, one birthday cake at a time. Our volunteer bakers, like you, bake and deliver homemade custom birthday cakes, cupcakes and cookies for those who are in foster care, victims of violence or human trafficking, experiencing homeless, LGBTQ+, refugees, or living at or below the poverty line. The seemingly simple gift of a homemade, custom sweet gives the youth joy and helps to build their self-esteem. It's amazing the impact a single cake can make!
Description
Cake4Kids is a National 501c3, started in 2010, providing free custom birthday cakes, cupcakes or cookies to underserved youth. What began as the grassroots effort of our founder and some friends delivering cakes to a handful of cakes to foster children in the San Francisco Bay Area, has grown into a nationwide organization that serves at-risk youth in 17 states (and counting!). To date, Cake4Kids has provided over 50,000 cakes.
There are still thousands and thousands more youth who need our support, so let's make an impact, together!
