Hello, friends. I hope that you are continuing to stay safe and sane as we ride through this world pandemic together. We made it to the month of May. We survived. Thank you for doing your part and staying home. And an even a bigger thanks goes out to the men and women fighting in the frontline of this invisible enemy. They risk their lives so that we don’t have to. With hospitals exceeding capacity limits during this time, these heroes are overworked and exhausted. To thank these heroes for their bravery and tireless efforts, Baked by A.K. wanted to do its little part in taking part in feeding them. I hope that this can bring a bit of comfort and smiles to our heroes.
I recently did a practice run with Crème Caramel LA. They are tirelessly working to get comfort treats into the bellies of frontline heroes in various areas. I connected with Christine, the owner, to find out about how I can also contribute with my own treats. The cookies that I had sent ended up going to Glendale Adventist.
I wanted to find areas closer to my location to make donations to, in and near the Orange County area. Someone recommended me to Fueling the Fearless. They’re not based in OC either, but a tad bit closer. They referred me to some local hospitals that would be welcoming of treats donations. To continue being able to get my treats to the bellies of our brave men and women in the frontline, I’ll be accepting donations.
How it works
For every $20 donation, you will be purchasing a dozen chocolate chunk cookies to send to a local hospital that I will bake for. I’ll bake and personally deliver/ship. Each donation will be personalized with your name on it. I’ll be posting the updates regularly with photos and details on which facilities your treats will be sent to. Follow on IG to stay posted!
Every time you choose to donate, you will be not only sending love (through treats, one of the best kinds of love) to our brave men and women, you will be helping a small business like mine fight to keep things afloat. Click below to feed heroes with cookies!
