#### WE BAKEOFF:  A TEAM BAKING AND FUNDRAISING CHALLENGE

---

A little background: 

For 120 years, WE, Inc. has provided employment opportunities for adults with disabilities.   As a part of that work, WE, Inc created its own product line which includes cake mixes.  Check out the [WE Made shop](https://weincal.org/shop-we-made)!

 

In March 2022, (WE, Inc) launched a new fundraising event called [WE Bake](https://bakeoff.swell.gives/).    WE Bake is a team baking challenge where teams create a dessert using the Workshops Empowerment cake mixes. 

 

Here are the details: 

- Baking Teams of 2-6 amateur bakers registered for $125.

- WE, Inc provided the teams with baking mixes and 300 small serving cups for event guests. The teams added their own elements to create a new dessert. 

- Desserts were baked at home pre-event and set up on tables at the event.  Tables could be decorated by the teams also. 

- Event guests (tickets $20) enjoyed tasting all of the desserts at a local brewery

 

 The event was a fun corporate engagement tool and incorporated the mission of the organization.

 

Each team had a fundraising page to garner votes pre-event and generate support for the "people's choice" award.  

 

Gross Proceeds:  $42k
