Have you ever thought that the World can be a bit rubbish (to say the least) at times?
Of course you have... everyone has...
But have you ever wondered about how you could make it a little bit better for someone else?
Well, several years back I read this appeal by Amanda from I Am Baker, asking for bakers in America and Canada to bake something and post it to someone in need. Inspired by it, I baked something for my friend who lives at the other end of the country that was having a rubbish time.
But every now and again I would think back to that project and wonder why no one would run a UK version of it.
And I waited.
And then I figured why wait for someone else, when I could do it. But I can't do it by myself.
People of the UK I need your help!
Firstly, I need you to nominate someone that deserves a treat for ANY reason. Ask yourself:
Do I know someone who is dealing with health issues? Someone that has lost a loved one? Who has helped take your bins out every week? Who has been out of work for a while? Who has been stressed out with exams? Who needs a shoulder to cry on, or been the shoulder for you? Someone that works tirelessly to bring joy and happiness to everyone else, but forgets about themselves?
I'm sure that you could all think of at least one person that springs to mind.
Secondly, I need people to volunteer to bake!
Would you be willing to bake, package and post something to someone that you don't know? Especially if you knew that this person had been nominated by someone that loves them.
Now, something that you would need to understand, is that I simply don't have the money to pay for ingredients, packaging or postage for you all... as a volunteer I would be asking you to be extremely generous and pay for it yourself. I know it is a lot for me to ask, but hopefully you'll find it in your hearts to help out.
If you think you could help in any way then please go to the appropriate page.
Thank you,
