BAK’D Cookies, the sibling-run bakery known for its oversized gourmet cookies and best-seller The Gimme S’more, is proud to announce its sponsorship of the Rotary Club of New Westminster’s upcoming Bevies & Bites event on February 22, 2025. The event will raise funds to support the Don’t Go Hungry food program as well as other impactful Rotary initiatives that make a difference in the lives of local families. | The Don’t Go Hungry program plays a vital role in addressing food insecurity in New Westminster, ensuring that vulnerable community members have access to nutritious meals and resources. Additionally, proceeds from the event will help fund a variety of Rotary programs aimed at uplifting the community, such as educational scholarships, youth leadership opportunities, and other initiatives that foster growth and connection. | BAK’D Cookies’ involvement reflects its core mission of using its business as a platform for positive change. Founded during the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic, BAK’D was born from siblings Jessica and Andy’s passion for baking and their desire to bring comfort and joy to others. Now a thriving business, the bakery continues to give back through initiatives like #cookiesforacause, donating to schools, universities, nonprofits, and local charities. | “Contributing to this event means a lot to us because we’ve seen firsthand how programs like Don’t Go Hungry and Rotary initiatives create meaningful change in our community,” said Jessica and Andy, co-founders of BAK’D. “For us, baking cookies has always been about bringing people happiness, and being able to extend that to something as impactful as fighting food insecurity is a privilege.” | BAK’D Cookies’ sponsorship also highlights its commitment to community connection. Their signature Gimme S’more cookie—featuring gooey marshmallows, dark chocolate chunks, and crunchy graham crackers—was created to spark nostalgia and joy, reminding people of cozy campfire memories. Through this partnership with the Rotary Club, BAK’D aims to take that spirit of comfort even further by helping provide essential resources to those in need. |
