You Can Help End Childhood Hunger

  • Have a bake sale in your community: Get your entire town, city, or county involved by hosting your bake sale in a popular location. A busy supermarket, farmer’s market, or sports complex is sure to get your bake sale noticed. Visit Bake Sale 101 (hyperlink) for more suggestions, tips, and tools.
  • Have a bake sale at work: Who doesn't love a sweet treat in the middle of the day. Form a team with co-workers to help build office morale. Add a raffle to your bake sale. Prizes could range from wearing jeans for an entire week or a better parking spot for a month.
  • Show your customers how you are Sharing your Strength: Integrate Great American Bake Sale into your business by donating the proceeds from a signature dessert to Share Our Strength. Or host a traditional bake sale on-site for a day of fun. <insert link to Restaurant and Bakery Involvement pdf>(PDF NEEDS to be updated waiting on new design)
