Cake4Kids, the national nonprofit that mobilizes volunteer bakers to deliver custom cakes and desserts to underserved children, will celebrate a landmark milestone on May 2, 2026: 100,000 children served nationwide. The Greater Boston chapter, marking its own fifth anniversary, will host a free, open-to-the-public Cupcake Picnic to honor the achievement and rally community support for continued expansion. The event is part of Cake4Kids' nationwide 100,000 Moments campaign, with details at cake4kids.org/100000-moments/boston.
Since its founding in 2010, Cake4Kids has grown into a volunteer-driven network of thousands of bakers across 19 states, delivering custom cakes and desserts to children in foster care, homeless shelters, group homes, and domestic violence shelters at no cost to recipients or partner agencies. The organization has now reached the milestone of 100,000 children served nationwide through its volunteer-powered chapter network.
The Boston chapter, which has been serving the community for five years, is actively seeking new partnerships with local agencies to expand their reach and serve more children in the Greater Boston Area. The Cupcake Picnic on May 2, 2026, is designed to bring together volunteers, partner agencies, and the public to celebrate the achievement and encourage further community involvement.
Cake4Kids is headquartered in Sunnyvale, California, and coordinates thousands of volunteer bakers across 19 states. The organization relies on community support to continue its mission. For more information about Cake4Kids and how to get involved, visit cake4kids.org.
