For week three of the annual SEFA Bake-Off at SUNY Oswego, 23 employees put out their finest baked goods for people to judge and enjoy.
All proceeds donated went to help the State Employees Federal Appeal (SEFA). Cathy Johnson, the manager of the Bake-Off competition, has been running the event for four years.
“Every year we work with employees on the campus to get them to donate a portion of their paycheck to our community for charitable contributions like the Humane Society or United Way or many others” said Johnson.
During the Bake-Off, the employees who baked them are not present.
“There’s kind of a mystique about who’s baking what because you’re supposed to have a blind system of casting your votes” said Johnson.
The winner of the competition will receive not only bragging rights, but an 18-piece nonstick baking kit.
Over two-hundred-and-thirty dollars was raised for the SEFA organization on Tuesday from the Bake-Off, the students and faculty enjoyed their baked goods, and the votes were cast to see who will win the grand prize.
