The cakes provided are typically 1/4 sheet cakes that will accommodate approximately 15-20 guests. Design of the cake is left to the discretion of the volunteer that is supplying the cake. While we will accept design suggestions from the parents, we do not supply special order cakes or cakes that will accommodate large parties. This program was intended to assist the children of those individuals that cannot afford to provide a cake.
**In order to be considered for a free birthday cake, you MUST complete the "Apply for Help Here" located on the Menu to the left. Forms that are incomplete and emails, will not be considered for a cake. If a phone number is not provided, your submission will be disregarded.
One cake will be provided to each unemployed family that is approved for this program. We do not provide additional "smash" cakes that some utilize on their childs first birthday. If you have decorations that contribute to the theme of your childs cake, and would like your items placed on the cake, we ask that you provide those decorations in advance.
Please provide us with at least 5-7 days notice. While we will do our very best to accommodate your child, it makes our scheduling much easier if you plan ahead.
