Whether you’re an expert perfecting your Pâte Sucrée or an occasional baker with a favorite chocolate chip cookie recipe, you can help fight childhood hunger by participating in
Share Our Strength’s Great American Bake Sale®.
Since 2003, more than 1.7 million people have participated in Great American Bake Sale, organizing community-based bake sales and raising millions to feed America’s children who struggle with hunger. With nearly one of four children across the United States going hungry during some part of the year, these local bake sales have both a national and local impact. This is why Chicago Metallic is proud to be a sponsor of Share Our Strength’s Great American Bake Sale and a supporter of Share Our Strength’s No Kid Hungry™ Campaign to end childhood hunger in America.
Just look how far bake sale fundraising goes towards making No Kid Hungry a reality:
• $25 can feed a child three healthy meals every day for a month.
• $50 can provide a child with healthy meals for a whole summer.
• $100 can provide 25 children with enough food to feed their families for a weekend.
• $200 can buy groceries for 50 families in need.
• $500 can help enroll a dozen low-income families in a life-changing course
on nutritious cooking and food budgeting.
It’s easy to host a bake sale. You don’t need to be an expert baker or to have hosted an event like this before, and it does not require big plans or big money. But the funds you raise will make a big difference for the millions of kids in America who know what it’s like to not get enough to eat.
So let’s roll up our sleeves, pre-heat our ovens, and bake a difference to make sure children in America never go hungry again. Visit
