Sweet Generation: A Bakery for Arts Education

WHY SWEET GENERATION NEEDS YOUR SUPPORT: Just over two years ago, I quit my job and committed to baking full time. Demand has since grown rapidly; last year I moved from baking from my home kitchen to renting a small shared commercial kitchen. Business has increased to the point that we’re already bursting at the seams. OUR SWEET SOCIAL MISSION: Sweet Generation not only funds Arts education for youth, but engages young people in the business itself. A portion of Sweet Generation’s sales are donated to Arts organizations, and we support their fundraising efforts through in-kind donations of our baked goods. We also started an internship program that teaches baking, work readiness, and entrepreneurship to teens and young adults from low-income communities. I have always envisioned Sweet Generation as a space where I could engage the public. With a storefront space, I will be able to increase our donations to Arts education, provide more internship opportunities, and reach new customers. My current lease ends in November, and now is the time to open a retail storefront where I can bake, sell and build community around youth and the Arts. THIS IS WHERE YOU COME IN!: I have secured enough funding for a security deposit and the first month’s rent for a bakery space. With your donations and by meeting our Indiegogo goal of $25,000, Sweet Generation will be able to renovate the space, purchase inventory, and get the lights on and doors open!
