Community Service Biscuit Project

Rainbows and Smiles launched our first ever community service project in 2018 whereby learners can earn community hours, develop a skill, create awareness for childhood cancer, and raise funds for children fighting cancer.

In the past our team have been inundated with requests from learners to earn community service hours by visiting oncology children in the respective wards. However, due to strict infection protocols in place, we are not permitted to take large numbers of scholars into the paediatric oncology wards. Thankfully our team came up with a way for learners to earn community hours without exposing anyone to potential trauma or life-threatening infections.

Introducing our COMMUNITY SERVICE BAKING BOX! What is in the box? Each box contains early warning sign flyer, step by step instructions, dry ingredients, a cookie cutter, stickers, and individual packaging for each biscuit. The project has four purposes: earning community hours, developing a skill, creating awareness, and raising funds.

By completing the application form below YOU ARE COMMITING TO THE PROJECT. Each box will be issued FREE of charge and on good faith. The requested box/s will then be sent to you, and you can commence your adventure of baking, decorating, packaging, selling and creating awareness for childhood cancer! ONLY once the project has been completed and all steps were followed, will Rainbows and Smiles issue the participant with a certificate of appreciation and an official letter confirming their community service hours, funds raised and participation.

KINDLY NOTE: Each box accounts for 4 hours of community service.

The recommended selling price per biscuit is R10. Each box should raise a minimum of R300. Please remember that we have a cost layout per box. We have to cover ours costs and raise funds to continue with our cause. So pretty please try and keep with the selling price per biscuit.

If you are interested, we want to encourage schools to participate in groups so that we can send the boxes to your school. Please allow 5-7 working days for delivery of your baking boxes.
