World Wide Vegan Bake Sale!

Hello everyone! Thanks for stopping by. I started this blog to help the future volunteers of the Vegan Bake Sale at the Cleveland Heights Street Arts Fair share ideas and get to know each other. You can choose where the proceedes go and for this sale, it will be the Cleveland Animal Protective Leaugue (http://www.clevelandapl.org/) If you would like to organize your own sale at another time, here is the web-site to post your information.

There is funding available through vegfund.org:

This is my first time organizing an event like this and I couldn't be more excited :) I love animals and I hope that this bake sale will help both enrich and save lives.
