"It becomes harder and harder as kids get older to find the right opportunities." 🌿
Christina found Kindred Bakery BK at the INCLUDEnyc fair and her son Skylar has been rising ever since. Key lime pie, blueberry muffins, pizza dough. And something even more important than the recipes — patience, independence, and confidence about what's ahead.

Read Skylar and Christina's full story at the link in bio.

And if their story moves you, join us April 27 at the Hummingbird Soirée to celebrate every young person like Skylar who shows up, learns, and rises. 🐦

Behind every loaf, every pastry, every finished product is a community. Young people who face barriers most people never have to think about, and the bakers, volunteers, and mentors who show up alongside them.

In 8 days we celebrate them at the Hummingbird Soirée. April 27, 2026. The Pearlbox NYC, 6-9PM.

We can't wait to meet you and tell more stories of our community.

8 days. And we have proof.

Two of our bakers have already earned paid positions as kitchen assistants.

Not a theory. Not a hope. Proof.

This is what Kindred Bakery BK does. This is why April 27 matters.

Join us at the Hummingbird Soiree and invest in the next baker, the next story, the next breakthrough.

Rise Through Purpose. Let's Rise Together.

This Autism Awareness Month, Kindred Bakery BK is sharing the story of why we were founded.

When founders Qiana Daniels and Nigel Thompson found themselves facing a system with no meaningful pathway for their Autistic son, they refused to accept it.

In 2022 they founded Kindred Bakery BK, a parent-led nonprofit using baking, entrepreneurship, and hands-on learning to build real pathways to employment for neurodivergent and neurotypical youth. Our mission: making inclusivity the norm, not the exception.

In 9 days, we celebrate how far we have come at the 2026 Hummingbird Soiree. This evening is for them and for every person who believes every young person deserves the opportunity to thrive.

10 days until we celebrate the young people who refused to become a statistic.

The Disability Cliff is real. Over 50% of young adults with autism disengage from work within 2 years of high school. Only 37% are employed 8 years after graduation.

Kindred Bakery BK is the bridge. Making inclusivity the norm, not the exception.

Join us at the Hummingbird Soiree.

We have been quiet on here, but anything but quiet behind the scenes. 🌿

Building something meaningful takes everything and right now every hour is going into making April 27 everything it deserves to be.

The Hummingbird Soirée is a few days away and this week we have a lot to share with you. From the people we are celebrating to the stories that need to be told.

We are back. And we have a lot to share.

Every year, thousands of young adults with autism and intellectual disabilities age out of school systems with no meaningful pathway forward — a moment advocates call the disability cliff.

Over 50% disengage from work and education within two years of high school graduation. Only 37% are employed up to eight years after graduation.

Kindred exists to change those numbers — through the kitchen.

Two of our participants have already earned paid positions as kitchen assistants. The work is producing results.

On April 27, we gather at the Hummingbird Soirée to celebrate the young people changing these numbers and to invest in everything still to come.
