For Goodness Cakes is the only nonprofit in Los Angeles - and one of few nationally - which provides birthday cakes to disadvantaged children. The board is a working board, volunteering their time and expertise to make the organization better for volunteers, partners, and the children who receive such special homemade gifts of love.

For Goodness Cakes is a wonderful organization that brings a lot of joy to children around the city. It provides such an easy way for aspiring bakers to give a small bit of happiness to underprivileged youth on their birthday. The executive director Jaime is incredibly dedicated and helpful to all the volunteers and organizations. She's done a wonderful job ensuring no birthday gets missed.

I have had SUCH a wonderful experience with this organization. For Goodness Cakes is not only a well oiled machine, but it also has such a thoughtful and important mission. I love contributing to making a child's life on such important occasions.

Also, Jaime, the founder of the company has been extremely helpful. She is so informative, super smart, and genuinely wonderful.

Highly recommend!

For Goodness Cakes was a dream come true for me to find. I love to bake, and to bake for these kids really pulls my heart strings... such a fun & fulfilling way to help others. For Goodness Cakes & I have been a match made in Heaven! I've been volunteering for them since the spring of this year and with every cake I just feel so much joy. I have to say that the way their website is set up makes it so simple to pick the cakes I'm able to take on. If you are unable to bake, delivery-only volunteers are appreciated as as well. I can't say enough good things about this wonderful organization and about Jaime. Let's bake!

Baking gives me such joy and becoming a member of the Sprinkle Squad has allowed me to share my love of baking with others. We always had our favorite cake on our birthday, it warms my heart to be able to provide someone their favorite cake to celebrate their special day. This is a wonderful organization with a great group of volunteers all sharing their gift of baking. I'm so grateful to be part of it!

I love volunteering with For Goodness Cakes. Everything is so organized and it’s easy to participate. The group is flexible and supportive and we get to be part of helping the community around us. Whenever I can... I logon to our volunteer system, select a date that works best for me, bake a special cake and then get to deliver it. It’s easy and rewarding!
