Center for Community Change: our July charity of the month

Our July charity of the month believes that only social movements can create social change. That’s why Center for Community Change’s mission is to build the power and capacity of low-income people, especially low-income people of color, to have a profound impact in improving their communities and the policies and institutions that affect their lives. The Center’s focus areas include jobs and wages, immigration, retirement security, affordable housing, racial justice, and barriers to employment for formerly incarcerated individuals.

Please join us in supporting the Center for Community Change. For each charity-themed cupcake sold this month at Sticky Fingers, we’ll donate $1 to support their critical work for people in need. This month’s flavor? Orange Creamsicle! Vanilla cake with orange creamsicle frosting. Eat cupcakes for charity!
