Vanessa Sencherey, owner of Sweet Pavilion, will be gifting women who have experienced child loss in the last year with a free box of 4 cupcakes. The first Mother's Day after she lost her first son was incredibly difficult and she would like to spread some light and love to those experiencing similar situations. This is the 3rd year for Cupcakes with Compassion! Over the past couple of years, we have received so many amazing and heartfelt testimonials about the impact these cupcakes have had.
You are seen, you are heard and you are not alone. If you are grieving the loss of a child, or know someone who is, please fill out a short form by clicking the link below.

Cupcakes were delivered on Fri 5/10 and Sat 5/11 to the neighborhoods listed below and surrounding areas. To successfully deliver these cupcake boxes, we will need to receive all responses by Wed 5/8. The goal is to reach 30 women who could benefit from a sprinkle of joy during what might be a challenging time.
