National Cupcake Day is exactly one month away, which means it’s time to get out your mixing bowls, pre-heat your oven and get ready to sprinkle the love for animals in need!

With National Cupcake Day coming up on Feb. 24, Ontario SPCA animal centres in Barrie, Orillia and Midland are asking people to do something sweet for vulnerable animals in Simcoe County by hosting a cupcake party.

Register online at nationalcupcakeday.ca and start planning your Cupcake Day party. Parties can be held anywhere, and on any date in January or February. Simply supply some delicious treats and then invite your co-workers, friends, family or neighbours to attend your party in exchange for a donation to your local participating animal centre.

Can’t get everyone together? No problem! Collect funds online and get cupcakes to your donors at your convenience, or send a virtual cupcake with a heartfelt thank you!

Presented by the Ontario SPCA and Humane Society, National Cupcake Day is a coordinated Canadian event to support local shelters, SPCAs, and humane societies. Proceeds from National Cupcake Day help give our furry friends in need a second chance. The campaign has raised $3.5 million to date.

“By getting involved and hosting a party or making a donation, you will be changing the life of vulnerable animals locally by raising critically needed funds,” says Carol Beard, Manager, Ontario SPCA Orillia Animal Centre.

To get involved, register for free at nationalcupcakeday.ca and start planning a party on a date that’s convenient for you.
