Love to bake?
This is the perfect volunteer opportunity for you!

At Cake4Kids we work to make sure every at-risk youth knows they matter, through the simple gesture of a personalized cake, batch of cupcakes, or cookies, bars, and brownies in celebration of their birthday, graduation, or adoption.

Since our founding in 2010, we have supported as many underserved youths as possible in the communities we serve, including youth experiencing homelessness, victims of human trafficking and domestic violence, youth in foster care, immigrant minors, and those living at or below the poverty line. We proudly serve the Boulder, Denver, Fort Collins areas and need your help to make a difference -- become a volunteer baker today!

It's Easy To Volunteer
Step 1: Our local agency partners submit each youth's dream request to us, from plain brownies to fondant covered cakes, and everything in between
Step 2: You choose which child's request to sign up for, based on the theme, the type of dessert, or even the delivery time and location
Step 3: You bake and decorate the sweets in your home kitchen, then deliver to the agency that placed the request

If you like to bake and decorate, you will love to volunteer with Cake4Kids!
- Volunteer on your own, with a friend, or with your teen (must be 16 or older to participate)
- Bake as little or as often as you'd like...it's totally up to you
- Deliver Monday-Friday during business hours
- Attend our 1-hour online volunteer orientation (required)

Mission Statement

At Cake4Kids, we bake and deliver birthday cakes for foster children and at risk youth. We support all sorts of under-privileged children and youth - they might be in group homes, at a domestic violence or human trafficking agency/shelter, in low income housing with or without a parent or even homeless. We aim to raise these children's self-esteem and confidence with this seemingly simple gift on their special day. It may just be a cake, but the children we bake for know somebody took the time and effort to do something special just for them. The children realize they are important and in turn can have an impact on the world. Cake4Kids is powered by an amazing and compassionate group of volunteers. Our bakers are mostly home-bakers. There are no minimum commitments - you choose how often you want to bake a cake for us. It's pretty simple - a Cake4Kids volunteer baker chooses a cake theme from our online calendar and bakes the cake in their own home and delivers the cake to one of the agencies we serve. Our volunteers never meet the children we support, but every cake is custom-made specially for each child with love.
