Voiceopedia Bake Sale x Life Moves Shelter 

Over this January, Voiceopedia launched a bake sale at Evergreen Square in order to fundraise money for a homeless shelter. The team sold a variety of baked goods for a price of $1 each including chocolate brownies, sugar cookies, and red velvet cupcakes. 

 

It was a great experience for many of our members and I can vouch to the feeling of success. We sold out all our goodies as many customers supported our cause! Some people even donated extra money. We were thankful and some were gracious enough to ask how we were doing. 

 

I particularly remember one family who was out on a run with their beautiful dogs and didn't want to purchase any items but donated money. I remember thanking them :)

 

The event was such a great success. It was a great way to interact with the community and see the smiles on everyone's faces after eating the baked items. Not only was it nice seeing their smiles but the smiles of the shelter we donated goods to. The money we raised from the bake sale went into buying six blankets, a box of pads, a jacket, toothbrushes and toothpaste, and some cozy socks. It felt great to use our hard earned money and donate it to Life Moves, an amazing homeless shelter. 

 

Overall we would like to thank everyone who came and thank everyone who was able to make this event successful. It truly means a lot and hopefully we can continue to do so.
