Donors move in mysterious and often delicious ways.
Baking entrepreneur Denise Weber, for one, found a sweet strategy to support City of Hope. She donates gourmet treats for Tea for the Soul.
Owner of Violet’s Cakes in Pasadena, Calif., Weber specializes in creating delectable cupcakes. With the help of Kristina Pipkin, senior officer in the Gift Planning Department, Weber learned about Spiritual Care’s sessions and decided to give the best way she knows how: through sugar and spice.
Weber also has baked for other nonprofit groups. Said Weber: “I believe giving comes back to you.”
