Watertown, Mass. — Cake4Kids, the national nonprofit that mobilizes volunteer bakers to deliver custom cakes and desserts to underserved children, will celebrate a landmark milestone on May 2, 2026: 100,000 children served nationwide. The Greater Boston chapter, marking its own fifth anniversary, will host a free, open-to-the-public Cupcake Picnic to honor the achievement and rally community support for continued expansion.
The event is part of Cake4Kids' nationwide 100,000 Moments campaign, which aims to raise awareness and funds to expand the organization's reach. Since its founding in 2010, Cake4Kids has grown into a volunteer-driven network of thousands of bakers across 19 states, delivering custom cakes and desserts to children in foster care, homeless shelters, group homes, and domestic violence shelters at no cost to recipients or partner agencies.
The Boston chapter, which has been active for five years, is actively seeking new partnerships with local agencies to expand its reach and serve more children in the Greater Boston Area. The Cupcake Picnic will provide an opportunity for community members to learn about the organization, meet volunteers, and enjoy free treats while celebrating the milestone.
Cake4Kids (legal name: Cake4Kids, Inc.) is headquartered in Sunnyvale, California, and coordinates volunteers through a chapter network. The organization has now served 100,000 children nationwide, a testament to the dedication of its bakers and supporters.
