Birthday in a Box
How it works
Local outreach programs, centers and shelters we have connected provide us with the first name, age, gender and birthday of the child in need. The staff assembles the boxes (recycled when possible) including a fresh cake (or cake mix), candles, party utensils and an age appropriate wrapped gift. A few days prior to the child's birthday, the "Birthday in a Box" is delivered to the appropriate facility and in turn given to the child's family. Each child and family remain anonymous.
