Here at Cake it Forward we love donating cakes to make people happy, it's how we came up with our name! We've been donating birthday cakes to kids with a parent in prison and supporting other great causes in our community for over five years, and we'd love your help to carry on. 

Nominate
If you know a kid having a hard time, you can nominate them to receive a cake on their birthday. We aim to donate at least one cake a week, and we will let you know if your nomination has been accepted a couple of weeks before your cake is ready. You will need to organise to collect the cake from our Petone studio (usually on a Saturday morning). Priority is given to the organisations that we already work with, so please include details of anyone referring you. We need at least a month's notice for donated cakes, so please don't fill in the form if the cake is required within a month. Please include details of the child's first name or initials, when their birthday is, what they are into and anything else you think we should know (we don't need full names, identifying information or contact details). Please fill in the form here.

Donate to help us make their day
We provide our time, skill and love with every cake we donate, but we need your help to meet our goal of donating at least one cake a week. For a direct, one off donation to support Cake it Forward, please click on one of the buttons below and follow the prompts for a secure payment. You can also donate directly at our caravan, we take cash and EFTPOS. We are a GST registered business so we can provide you with a GST receipt, but we are not a registered charity. Our cake donations rely on your generosity, we will donate 4 cakes per month if we receive $240 the month prior, we reserve the right to hold funds until the following month (or future date), and we'll make more cakes as long as we have the funds and people to donate to. Please see our social media for donation updates. Thanks for helping us to sprinkle kindness. ​
