National Cupcake Day is coming up. which means it’s time to get out your mixing bowls, pre-heat your oven and get ready to sprinkle the love for animals in need!
National Cupcake Day is an annual national fundraiser taking place on Feb. 24 to support animals in need at participating SPCAs and humane societies across Canada. The Ontario SPCA and Humane Society is asking people to do something sweet for vulnerable animals in your community by hosting a cupcake party.
The concept is as simple as it is sweet. Register online for free at nationalcupcakeday.ca and start planning your Cupcake Day party. Parties can be held anywhere, and on any date in January or February. Simply supply some delicious treats and then invite your co-workers, friends, family or neighbours to attend your party in exchange for a donation to your local participating SPCA or humane society.
Can’t get everyone together? No problem! Collect funds online and get cupcakes to your donors at your convenience, or send a virtual cupcake with a heartfelt thank you!
“National Cupcake Day is the sweetest day of the year and we’re challenging everyone who cares about animals to get involved,” says Daryl Vaillancourt, Chief, Humane Programs & Community Outreach, Ontario SPCA and Humane Society. “By getting involved and hosting a party or making a donation, you will be changing the life of vulnerable animals by raising critically needed funds.”
Presented by the Ontario SPCA, National Cupcake Day is a coordinated Canadian event to support local shelters, SPCAs, and humane societies. Proceeds from National Cupcake Day help give our furry friends in need a second chance. The campaign has raised $3.5 million to date.
