Great American Bake Sale coming to Nashua bookstore

Nashua’s Used Book Superstore is joining millions of people throughout the nation in the fight against childhood hunger by hosting a bake sale on Saturday May 22nd from 11:00AM – 5:00PM. This event is part of Share Our Strength’s Great American Bake Sale, a national campaign which mobilizes Americans to end childhood hunger by holding bake sales in their communities.

The bookstore, located in the former Tweeter building at 293 Daniel Webster Highway, is acting as a host location for local volunteers putting on the fundraiser. All money raised through the sale of baked goods will be donated directly to Share Our Strength’s national and local efforts to end childhood hunger in America by 2015. In 2009, the nonprofit group funded more than 300 organizations across the country working to end hunger.

This year nearly 17 million children across the country struggle with hunger; that’s almost 1 in 4 kids. The Great American Bake Sale held at Nashua’s Used Book Superstore supports Share Our Strength’s efforts to end childhood hunger and surround kids facing hunger with nutritious food where they live, learn and play.
