Calling All Home Bakers & Local Bakeries:
Your Cookies Can Change Lives.
Happy Tails Ball brings together music, animal, and cookie lovers to support New Hope Animal Rescue. This year, we’re inviting home bakers and local bakeries to join the mission by donating their best treats. Your cookies help raise real dollars for rescue animals in need.
Yes, I’ll Bake!
How Your Cookies Make an Impact
Cookie donations serve three meaningful roles at the event:
Delicious Event
Guests enjoy donated cookies throughout the evening. Your freshly baked goods create a warm, joyful atmosphere (and give people something to rave about between songs).
Assorted Gift Baskets
Your cookies may be combined into beautifully packaged assortment baskets. These crowd-pleasers attract generous bids and help raise crucial funds.
Bakery Baskets
For bakeries and A-game home bakers, your cookies cay be featured as a solo spotlight basket. A great way to show off your baked goods and support New Hope’s lifesaving work.
Who Can Donate?
Whether you specialize in chocolate chip classics or avant-garde rosemary-lemon shortbread, we want to hear from you. We welcome traditional, gluten-free, vegan, and signature bakes.
- Home bakers of all skill levels
- Local bakeries, cafés, and pastry shops
- Cottage bakers with licensed or permitted operation
- Anyone with a big heart and a great recipe
We ask that all donations be freshly baked and packaged for safe transport. We do not accept store bought cookies.
