it starts with cake

Because cake isn’t just something sweet; it is a moment of joy and the center of almost every celebration. Everyone deserves to be celebrated, even in hard times. Families facing illness, financial hardship, or difficult seasons deserve a day, a moment, and a reminder that they matter. With the help of our Sweet Crew of volunteer bakers and supporters, we make sure those moments still happen, one cake at a time.
