Wellesley Businesses Taking Part in Boston Bakes for Breast Cancer

A cancer fundraiser involving sweet treats is now underway, and three Wellesley businesses are taking part. 

Boston Bakes for Breast Cancer, in its 14th year, started Monday and runs through Sunday, May 12. Last year's event raised more than $78,000.

Participating businesses create a special dessert to include on their menu, with proceeds from that dessert benefiting cancer research at the Dana Farber Cancer Institute and Bakes for Breast Cancer, Inc., a non-profit breast cancer organization.

Three businesses in Wellesley are taking part: 

•  583 Washington St.
• Whole Foods Market, 442 Washington St.
•  184 Linden St.
