Student-Led Outreach

Dulcis Spes is Latin for "Sweet Hope"

Everyone loves a treat! We are a group of high school volunteers baking fresh desserts and sweet breads in home kitchens, hand-delivering our desserts to unhoused and in-need community members.

Neighborhood Presence

Warm Conversations & Comfort

Sunday mornings we bake homemade banana breads, sugar cookies, chocolate chip cookies and brownies in hand-wrapped packages to deliver in person at local food distribution sites.

Many of those we serve have commented on their love for sweets and how it reminds them of home-cooked meals during better times.

Testimonials

"You kids make the best banana bread! You should go into business."

"I've always had a sweet tooth, and I love it when I see the desserts are here."

"Can I take two?"

"Next time, can you make sugar loaf bread?"

Community Action

Turning weekend student baking into direct, tangible care to those in need in New York City.

Founded and run entirely by high schoolers committed to showing up for our unhoused neighbors with dignity and sweetness.
