Bakesale is the Purpose Driven Marketplace that allows anyone to sell any product or service and split the money raised with a social cause of their choice.
Imagine a store somewhere between Etsy and Fiverr with a healthy portion of all sales going to charity, filled with all sorts of creative and unique products and personalized services including:
- Private Yoga to benefit Animal Equality.
- Thai Cooking Classes helping women immigrants become business owners with Hot Bread Kitchen.
- Mobile Website Design raising money to legalize MDMA for PTSD via Maps.org
- Javascript Lessons helping fund the IMGO Girls Orphanage in Mombasa, Kenya.
Bakesale was born out of the frustration of watching people fighting on social media combined with a desire to create a way for people to put their talents to use directly in service of the problems they see in the world.
Bakesale creators can choose to keep a portion (up to 50%) of sales to cover their time and costs or they give everything to a cause or charity of their choice.
Meet Three Creators
Bakesale is just getting started but has already attracted a variety of compassionate creators.
Jenny Harada (featured above) is offering a selection of her vibrant one of a kind plush toys and art to raise money for Unidos Relief Fund, a hurricane relief fund for Hurricane Maria victims in Puerto Rico.
