Birthday Dreams is so excited to announce that we have celebrated our 4,000th birthday! In seven years, Birthday Dreams supporters have made over 4,000 birthdays possible for homeless children who would have not been able to have a birthday.
These kids often go without some of the simple things that most of their friends take for granted. Simply stated, we believe every child deserves a birthday. One day where they can be a kid and have a celebration that is about them and where their worries can wait a day.
At Birthday Dreams it is our mission to provide birthday parties to children who often have never had a regular birthday party. Or due to current circumstances, would not be able to celebrate this year. We work with local area shelters to provide everything needed for a memorable birthday (personalized cake, balloons, themed decorations, guest goodie bags and gifts from the child's wish list) to the parent to be able to give the gift of a party, Birthday-in-a-Box, to their child. There are also several shelters where we host monthly on-site parties for all the kids with a birthday that month and their friends. These are larger parties that include all of the party essentials and often have other party favorites like face painters, bouncy houses, clowns or magicians (talent provided by our professional volunteers).
Birthday Dreams is dependent on donations and our volunteers. We couldn't do what we do without the generosity of others. Thank you to all of the support from our community, giving donors and our hard working volunteers who helped make 4000 birthdays possible. More birthdays and smiles are being provided every day!
