Good Bitches Baking Trust

Good Bitches Baking is a network of volunteers all over Aotearoa who bake treats in their own kitchens, with their own ingredients, to give to organisations that work with people having a tough time.

Baking is simply a mechanism for spreading kindness, whether it’s talking to their kids about why they’re making treats for someone else, cooking up a family favourite recipe for someone else to enjoy, or spending a little extra time to write a thoughtful message on the enclosed flyer. Our Good Bitches don’t judge or question anyone’s interpretation of ‘tough time’ - everyone deserves a treat, no matter their circumstances.

We don’t claim to fix anyone’s world, but our recipients tell us that knowing someone cared enough to make them a treat means a whole lot. It lets them know they’re not alone, that they are a valued member of the community - that’s worth something right?

We've grown from 12 Wellington-based volunteer bakers in September 2014 to well over 3,500 across 32 chapters around Aotearoa today.

Anyone who gets our kaupapa is a Good Bitch, and we know people spread kindness in all kinds of ways.

You don’t have to be an amazing baker to help us help others.

It costs about $11 for every box of treats to keep this organisation going.

We're always delighted to receive any kind of financial support, from a one-off donation to payroll giving to corporate partnerships.

A few words from our recipients...

"The baking that our people receive means so much and is such a practical way to show that someone cares and they know that it is done with care and love as baking takes time. Actions speak louder than words and this is one way that this saying is true."
