Kelli’s Cookies for Goodness Bakes is more than just a bakery and for its employees, it’s more than just a job. Thanks to Taste of Placer, owner Kelli Ridenour is able to help fund a mission.
Fundraiser for good
In 2017, after operating a for profit bakery for more than 19 years, Ridenour changed business gears to a non-profit, and simultaneously, transitioned her entire purpose for baking cookies into a workforce development program extending job training, mentoring and employment to former foster and at-risk youth in the region, through the storefront bakery of Kelli’s Cookies for Goodness Bakes.
“Taste of Placer supports these young adults while enjoying a culinary cruise around Placer County’s farm-to-fork offerings. It’s an all-you-can-eat, all-you-can-drink night out to bring awareness to our mission, and help to expand our program to more youth in need,”
Kelli Ridenour
