Once a month, after contacting the bakery Connie's Cookies and Wichita Children's Home a week before hand, I deliver sweets to the Home from the bakery, as well as a party basket. On the day of the delivery, I load up the basket (which I usually fill with party favors the night before hand) into my car and go to the bakery to pick up the cakes. The bakery typically donates three cakes to the organ
ization. After picking up the cakes, I drive to the Children's Home and drop off the cakes and the basket at the front desk. I am not allowed to give it to the children directly due to privacy issues. At the Children's Home, I pick up a tax receipt which I fill out and give to the bakery, keeping one copy to give back to the Children's home. Then, a week after the delivery, I go back to the Children's Home to pick up the basket for next month along with Thank You cards the children have filled out. I then pick out a few cards to give to the bakery to let them know how much they are appreciated. I also keep an active log of the deliveries through an Excel sheet. The next month, I do it all again!
