Sign up to volunteer or bake for West. 

It’s been a big day at Austin Bakes headquarters. A press release announcing our bake sale locations went out to media this afternoon, and I just sent information about the sale to our 81st volunteer! We are making good progress, but we still need baked goods, supplies, and volunteers at all eight bake sale locations.

The good news about signing up is that it’s easier than ever! If you want to help, give us your contact info on our nifty sign up page! When we receive your information, we’ll send you details about what to bake, sale logistics, and where and when to drop baked goods off at the sale. We’ll also give you information about volunteering if you’d like to help out next Saturday.

Lots of people have requested a printable flyer advertising the sale. It’s here! Please consider printing a few of these out and hanging them up around your office, church, or local business. The file should be small enough to share comfortably via email, too. Click this link to download the flyer.

The last bit of happy news for today is that our list of business sponsors is growing! The owners and employees of many of these businesses will be baking and volunteering for the sale alongside home bakers, and a growing team of food bloggers, making this a true community effort. Please join us next Saturday in support of our neighbors up north.

 Special thanks to volunteers Rachelle and Catherine for sending out our press release.
