Treat Cupcake Bar Makes Helping The Needham Education Fund Taste Delicious

For the 3rd year in a row Treat Cupcake Bar has teamed up with the Needham Education Fund, an independent community-based organization that raises funds for the enrichment of public school children in Needham, funding grants that promote innovation and excellence from pre-kindergarten through high school. Treat will be selling “spelling bee” cupcakes for the month of March through their monthly Treat Other’s Well program.

“The Needham Education Fund is perfect for our Treat Other’s Well program.. It is a local organization and it is kid-oriented.” Adie- Head Baker

TOW is a unique program designed to show support for youth wanting to make a difference in the Needham and Greater Boston communities. TOW creates a platform to speak out about various concerns while simultaneously assisting deserving charities in their efforts to better their services. The program is intended to be kid-run, meaning all requests are encouraged to come from youth. TOW supports a different charity each month.

Proceeds may go to an event, charity group, or ongoing cause.
