Samantha’s Challah Fun(draiser)™

How it Works

1. When you see the post of this week’s challah you need to comment with interest and commit to making a donation by the time allotted.
2. I tag or pm you to let you know you get a challah that week.
3. Donate to the charity of the week and submit picture of the receipt to me via messenger/text.*
4. Arrange pick-up location
5. Pick up and enjoy!

*There will be times when I collect payment and will make a donation on behalf of all donors. In these instances, I will be splitting proceeds with the organization. This will be for “complicated” and ingredients or time-heavy flavors or designs. I will always notify when this happens.

The Details

• Challah is given away through my Facebook group. Not a member? Just request to join!
• There are usually 2-4 loaves to give away each week.
• I may not bake every week.
• I may bake earlier in the week and freeze to preserve the freshness.
• If there are several people interested, I may bake more or tag you the following week so you get notified.
• My kitchen is conservative kosher (separate meat and dairy dishes, pots, utensils, use non-heckshered cheese and vegan items), but may not be your level of kashrut. If this concerns you, just ask and we can discuss.
• Most challah is pareve (not meat or dairy) and made on a pareve baking mat with pareve utensils in stainless steel or glass bowl. I will make note when challah is dairy.
• I don’t bake with tree nuts or coconuts, but they are in my house so cross contamination, while unlikely, is possible.
• You are responsible for picking up the challah. There are location options, but ultimately it is on you.
• Shipping: very tricky. It’s expensive to overnight. I can wrap and pack it well for 2-3 shipping but you will be charged for shipping and handling. I am not responsible once the post office has it.

As much as I love baking challah, my challah fun(draisers) all depend on how things are going each week (I have a ft job, pt job, extra-curriculuar stuff, a chronic illness, two kids and a husband who need me sometimes), but I hope to raise/donate at least $54 a month. Thanks for supporting!
