Bake Sale — Shraddha Foundation
Along with Arhaan Lightwalla, Shivaan Sharma, and Vir Gangoly, I organised a bake sale at school to raise funds for the Shraddha Foundation, a shelter for cancer patients and survivors in Chembur. The idea was to use a school event to create a direct contribution to a local cause. We proposed holding the bake sale during a Quarter 2 PRD, planning to sell simple, non-spillable, room-temperature items such as muffins, cupcakes, bagels, brownies, and cookies.
The initiative eventually took place during a parent-teacher meeting on the school campus, allowing us to reach a much wider section of the school community. We baked and prepared items ourselves while also receiving contributions from other students, turning the sale into a broader student-led effort. All proceeds from the bake sale went to charity, supporting the Shraddha Foundation and helping contribute towards a Christmas celebration for the people it serves, including food and gifts.
