Cake Balls for a Good Cause
I like to make cake balls and cake pops solely for the enjoyment factor. I don’t make them for profit. But, since I always have so many cake balls left over, I needed to do something with them. So, in December 2010, I decided to make holiday themed cake balls and give them for donations which I gave to charity. In one month, I raised $300 from cake ball donations which I donated to SafePlace – a local, battered women’s shelter.
I had so much fun in December with this little project that I decided to continue this for 2011. I have made a personal goal to raise $3,500 in 2011 for charities or good causes through cake ball donations and/or other means.
I signed up for the Hill Country Ride for AIDS on April 30th, 2011 to do the 70 mile bike ride. I have already raised $1,000 through online donations, Visa gift card giveaway, cake ball donations, and photo session giveaways.
For March 2011, I will be giving cake balls for donations to benefit a family in Hutto, TX who are in the process of raising money to adopt an adorable little boy from Korea. They have 30 days to raise $19,000! Every little bit helps. Meet YoSeb! If you aren’t local and would like to just donate money, feel free to donate directly on the Meet YoSeb page!
There will be a limited number of cake balls for March 2011. I’ll be experimenting with new flavors! If you would like to be on the list to receive these cake balls, just leave a comment on this page and let me know which kind you would like. I will deliver locally (Austin, TX) for free. First come, first served. Cash only or paypal.
