baking for charity
As I mentioned in an earlier post, every October, Microsoft has a giving campaign to encourage its employees to engage in charitable giving.
MacBU takes part in this, with our very own twist to it. We have a bake auction every year. It's like a competitive bake sale. This year, I entered three items: strawberry cupcakes, a raspberry tart, and strawberry pate de fruit. My efforts landed me fourth place amongst the bakers in terms of money raised.
I support two charities: KQED public radio and RAINN. Listening to the other bakers and the bidders, there was a great array of charities supported. MacBU had strong participation across the whole group, and I'm really proud of us for helping out our communities.
