In a heartwarming display of culinary creativity and community spirit, the SAM charity bake sale proved that a little sweetness can go a long way. Over two delicious days, staff members rolled up their sleeves, preheated their ovens, and set out to make a difference, one cake at a time.
Baking a Difference
With a table laden with homemade goodies ranging from scrumptious cakes to tantalising tarts, the SAM bake sale was more than just a feast for the taste buds. It was a mission to support the Cancer Fund for Children. This initiative is part of SAM’s ongoing commitment to giving back to the community and also support families facing the challenge of childhood cancer. Donna McKeown, Customer Service Co-Ordinator at SAM said: “I really love baking! I always jump at the chance to bake, especially when it is for such a good cause!”
A Recipe for Fundraising Success
The bake sale’s success surpassed expectations, raising a commendable £368.14. This contribution is a step towards SAM’s ambitious goal of £10,000. The money raised will help provide practical, emotional, and also financial support to children and young people affected by cancer. Each purchase went beyond mere indulgence; it was also a pledge of support to those in need. Therefore, demonstrating the profound impact of collective efforts.
Sweetening the Pot of Support
The funds raised from the bake sale will help the Cancer Fund for Children offer vital services. From therapeutic short breaks for families to dedicated one-on-one support for children and young people, the charity works tirelessly to ensure that no family has to face cancer alone.
