Bake something meaningful

Help make a birthday feel special.

Volunteer bakers help us provide thoughtful birthday cakes for children, youth, and adults served by local shelters, foster care programs, residential programs, and community organizations.

Choose what works for you

Claim only the birthday requests that fit your schedule. There is no required number of cakes or ongoing commitment.

All experience levels are welcome

Cakes do not need to look professional. Thoughtful, homemade cakes are exactly what this project is about.

Receive the full details

After you claim a request, Julia will follow up with the cake preferences, serving needs, and drop-off information.

Ask for help when needed

Volunteers can let us know if they need assistance with ingredients, supplies, or delivery.
