HOW TO HOST A BAKE SALE
WEEK 1: ORGANIZE YOUR TEAM.
Reach out to friends, family members,
neighbors, coworkers—anyone you think would
like to be involved in this project. Set up a
Facebook group or email chain so you can keep
in regular contact and begin assigning tasks to
each member.WEEK 2: PICK YOUR LOCATION.
Pick a location that is guaranteed to get
noticed. Host your bake sale at your offi ce,
neighborhood school, a community center, a
popular grocery store front, or a local farmers’
market. You can also coordinate with local
events like 5K runs, parades, and festivals to
ensure your bake sale gets plenty of foot traffi c.WEEK 3: PROMOTE, PROMOTE,
PROMOTE.
Once you sign up, we’ll send you a bake sale
tool kit. Use social media, coff ee shop and
community center bulletin boards, and simple
word of mouth to get your event on people’s
radar. Ask friends and local businesses to post
bake sale signs in front of their homes and
stores for increased visibility.
