MEET THE TEAM

Bakes & Smiles is an organization started by Bay Area students during the baking craze of quarantine. Dozens of bakes laid to waste and our family's increasingly high blood sugar. In August of 2020, we decided to get some good out of our unhealthy amount of baking. We now host monthly bake sales in order to fundraise for nonprofits and charities whose goals align with our own: to help the youth and inspire the upcoming generations.
