Introducing Bridge Bakery — A New Way to Support ELI Thrive Families

ELI Thrive is excited to announce the launch of Bridge Bakery, a new initiative connecting our talented client bakers with customers across Birmingham. This platform allows families who have launched small baking businesses—many through our HUSTLE micro-grant program—to sell their goods directly to churches, companies, and individuals for events of all sizes.

Bridge Bakery currently features three bakers and nine delicious products, including cupcakes, cookies, muffins, brownies, and award-winning pound cakes. Customers can order items in various quantities through an online order form, with a recommended two-week notice for events and catering. Pickup and delivery options vary by baker.
