Where to donate baked goods?
Hi neighbors
So, I'm purging my cupboards and fridge of all my baking ingredients while I'm in the process of losing weight that I've put on. I absolutely love to bake so I thought "maybe I can use all this stuff and bake a bunch and donate it somewhere that could use it" so that's what I wanna do.
I'm from Canada and while I'm a resident and have been here for three and a half years I'm not familiar with all the charities, shelters, good Will's, etc and where they're located.
I'd love to hear your suggestions for where I could drop off the baked goods (totally free of charge). Doesnt matter where as long as it's anywhere in the Auckland area (including rodney and north shore).
Thank you.

Auckland has a thriving cafe culture, but with costs climbing, that culture is under pressure. We’ve seen the headlines about recent closures across the country, and it’s a tough pill to swallow along with a $6+ coffee.
We all want our favourite spots to stay open, but we also have to balance our own budgets ⚖️
