Giving Back
As passionate about our mission as we are about baking
Our mission is to use business as a force for good and to build stronger, healthier communities. To leave the world better than we found it. To dream bigger. To leave a positive impact on people and the planet.
Our giving back philosophy is a cornerstone of this mission. While there are many causes worthy of support, we prioritize efforts focused in the following five areas:
Food & Hunger
We support efforts to increase access and connection to real food and are proud to work hand-in hand with the following organizations.
Willing Hands
Hunger Free Vermont
FEEDING AMERICA
FOOD CORP
Environmental Stewardship
We support efforts that positively impact our natural environment, conserve resources, and develop renewable energy sources.
Building Community through Baking
Towards a healthier, more vibrant society
We run a national Bake for Good program: a free STEM-based program teaching kids how to bake bread and encouraging them to donate a loaf.
We also run For Goodness Bakes: a program to help bakeries give back by purchasing baked goods for donation to local charities.
Diversity, Equity & Inclusion
We believe in the universality of baking. We are for everyone having an equitable seat at the table and against barriers that stand in the way of equality.
Volunteerism
Giving back with our own skills and time. Volunteering is how every one of our employee owners can help take action.
