Cake for Kids Cambodia started with sugar, flour, eggs and many late nights - it was Susan's passion for baking. Soon after a trip to Southeast Asia in 2006 Susan decided to marry her two passions, baking and children and Cake for Kids Cambodia was born. Since 2009 we have impacted the lives of over 2,500 kids by raising over to $60,000 dollars and volunteering 1,000s of hours in country!
