Sofia should convey the fact that the funds raised from the bake sale will go towards supporting a local charity or school program, as this will give her classmates a sense of purpose and motivation to participate. She should also emphasize the importance of teamwork and coming together as a school community to make the bake sale a success.

Sofia should exclude any negative comments or guilt-tripping language that may make her classmates feel bad for wanting to attend the popular sports event instead of helping out at the bake sale. This could alienate potential volunteers and create a negative atmosphere around the event. It's important to keep the tone positive and inviting in order to encourage participation.
