NJ woman cooks up bake sale to end foreclosure
TEANECK, N.J. — A New Jersey woman is hoping her bake sale will help forestall foreclosure and keep a roof over her head.
Angela Logan has until July 26 to raise $2,559.54 due her lender under a federal program to help homeowners in financial trouble.
The divorced mother of three sons has received orders for 42 “mortgage apple cakes” at $40 each since coming up with the idea last week.
Logan has lived in her Teaneck house for nearly 20 years. But she says a home-renovation nightmare contributed to her financial troubles.
Logan, an actress who also works locally as a comedian, tells The Record of Bergen County she and her family laugh to keep from crying.
