“We created this project to encourage teachers during this time. We just thought a lot of teachers during this time are sacrificing their health and bodies to teach the next generation. So, we are planning to give out 1,000 cookies and we don’t really plan to stop there,” said Nigel, who mentioned that anyone can sponsor teachers by donating via their website.

Even though they are still young, the Mushambi brothers are used to doing charity work.

Since launching their baking business 2 Brothers in the Kitchen in 2018, Nigel and Shane have donated over two hundred meals to the homeless, $1,000 for a hospital in Zimbabwe, and countless desserts to charities.
