We Rise By Lifting Each Other

For Goodness Cakes - Spreading Joy, Love & Frosting

Michelle Beck Season 1 Episode 9

Host Michelle Beck welcomes Candice Dominguez-Sundquist to talk about For Goodness Cakes, spreading joy, love and frosting. For Goodness Cakes matches volunteers to make and hand-deliver birthday & graduation cakes to children in foster care and youth overcoming adversity on their special day.

Candice is the Portland Metro Chapter Leader of For Goodness Cakes and volunteers her time and energy to make sure that youths in need in the Portland area are celebrated for birthdays, graduations or other special events. 
 
 For today's "Happy Hour" we are highlighting a Birthday Cake Mocktail - check out the episode for the recipe!

“Young adults just need that extra person to champion for them, to tell them they matter, that their birthday matters, that we see them, we see their accomplishments and we are cheering them along every step of the way." – Candice Dominguez-Sundquist.
