Cake4Kids is a Bay Area-based 501c3 that provides free custom birthday cakes to underserved children. What began as a grassroots effort of their founder and some friends, delivering cakes to a few foster children in Santa Clara County has now grown into a full-fledged non-profit that serves at-risk youth in 10 counties. In a world where the basics of a positive childhood are often out of reach and youth have little to call their own, the seemingly simple gift of a birthday cake can make a huge impact by raising their self-esteem and confidence. Cake4Kids is powered by an amazing and compassionate group of volunteers who donate all the ingredients and supplies to bake cakes for the youth in their own homes and then deliver them to our partner agencies who support the youth. We have no minimum commitment — volunteers choose how often and which cakes they want to bake! Our volunteers never meet the children we support, but every cake is custom-made for each child and an enormous amount of love is baked into each one.
