Good Afternoon,

As many of you will already know, BCNA and Bakers Delight have had a very close partnership for a number of years, and our organisation would not be where we are today without their genuine and ongoing support.

This year BCNA feels honoured to mark 13 years - or a ‘baker’s dozen’ - of unwavering support from Bakers Delight for Australians affected by breast cancer.

Bakers Delight has been with BCNA every step of the way, supporting our Founder Lyn Swinburne in her vision for the organisation from the outset. 13 years on and the partnership continues to go from strength to strength.

Our annual Pink Bun campaign reached new heights this May, raising an incredible and record-breaking $1.2 million for BCNA!

Since the partnership began Bakers Delight has raised over $7.7 million for BCNA!

Pink Bun campaign
Thank you to the many BCNA members who linked-up with their local bakery, putting a face to the campaign and thanking the bakers for donating their own time and ingredients to make the Pink Buns each day.

This year saw BCNA members feature on the in-store bakery material, putting real faces to the campaign of women who have benefitted from Bakers Delight’s generosity. Thank you to Irene, Debbie, Sara, Cynthia and Isabelle for sharing your stories.



Ongoing support
Bakers Delight support BCNA in numerous ways throughout the year.

We do not know of any other company that contributes 100% of funds raised through sales of a specific product in their stores going straight to supporting the work of a charity.

Without Bakers Delight we simply could not offer support to the 15,000 women who will be diagnosed this year and the 200,000 women living with the impact of their breast cancer.

So thank you Bakers Delight bakeries!
And when you're next out shopping, or passing by your local Bakers Delight, why not pop in and say thanks to the staff for their incredible support of BCNA?

Lots of pink love,
Thea

    Couldn't agree more Mich - great things can happen when there's a genuine desire to help and make a difference. We feel very lucky to have them in the BCNA family...

    -plus, their bread is delicious! ;)
