Wishful Baking Week combines two great things: enjoying sweet treats and helping to grant wishes to children with life-threatening medical conditions.
Wishful Baking Week is a city-wide bake sale where participants help fundraise for Make-A-Wish Northern Alberta. Host a bake sale sometime during October 1-5, 2018, and then connect with Make-A-Wish to donate your earnings! Your event can be as simple or elaborate as you choose — host a traditional bake sale in your school’s cafeteria, plan an elegant high tea and treats sale, or get your coworkers together to host a cupcake bake off. The planning is up to you!
Here are the basics:
- Sign up to host your event using the form at www.wishfulbakingweek.com
- Let your team, school, friends, community or coworkers know that you are hosting your event during the week of October 2nd to October 6th, 2017
- Organize your bakers/buyers and let them know how much the baked goods cost, and when and where the event is, as well as what to bring
- Check out the toolkit section of the website for posters and templates to help promote your bake sale
- Set up your table of sweets (don’t forget napkins!) and your donation bin
- Sell! This is for a good cause, so encourage others to indulge!
- Connect with Make-A-Wish to drop off funds raised
See, it’s a piece of cake!
Every contribution helps Make-A-Wish Northern Alberta deliver wishes to children in our region.
