Help Ramatu Turn Pain Into Purpose

Donation protected
Hi, my name is Ramatu Kamara.
I’m the heart and hands behind Sweet Tuu’s Cakes & Treats. I’m a single mother of two, a self-taught cake artist, and a woman who has turned pain into purpose. In 2018, I started my business out of my kitchen as a way to heal and to bring joy to others. I love bringing important moments to life by creating custom cakes and treats and making everlasting memories with every bite.

In December 2023, I survived a major car accident that nearly took my life. The vehicle was totaled. Since the accident I have been in and out of work due to lack of reliable transportation and this year alone I have been let go from three jobs. My childcare paperwork was mishandled and that left my son without services. As a single mom, these challenges have taken a toll on my household and my children’s lives.

But through it all, one thing has stayed constant: my calling. I believe God spared me for a reason, and He’s been telling me to step fully into my gifts. After losing another job in August 2025, I made the decision to listen to that still, small voice and focus on Sweet Tuu’s Cakes & Treats full time. By growing my business, I can eliminate childcare costs, create a flexible schedule for my family, and finally build stability doing what I love.

I’m fundraising to invest in equipment, ingredients, licensing, marketing, and reliable transportation so I can take my business to the next level. Every donation — no matter how small — helps me provide for my children, serve my community, and build a legacy that turns pain into something beautiful.

Thank you for reading my story and believing in my dream. If you can’t give financially, please consider sharing my campaign with others who may want to help.
