BIRTHDAY GIVING PROGRAM
Mission
Can you imagine being a kid (or even an adult for that matter) and not having a cake and gifts on your birthday? Everyone has a birthday and everyone deserves to be celebrated. Due to budget constraints, the organizations we serve do not have the funds to provide for birthdays. Our organization fills this void and brings joy, happiness and respect into the lives of those who are often neglected. The Birthday Giving Program's mission is to provide birthday bags and celebrations to children, adults, senior citizens, and veterans affected by poverty, addiction, abuse, homelessness, violence, physical/mental challenges, old age, and loneliness. Our mission is to ensure that everyone is celebrated and never forgotten. Birthdays are important because they provide the confidence, love, and hope people need to commemorate their existence in the world.
About Us
The organization was founded by teens and young adults and started off extremely small. Initially, The Birthday Giving Program was partnered with one organization in Aurora, Illinois. Today, we are partnered with over 100 organizations.
Since the organization was founded in May 2017, we have raised over $45,000 and delivered over 4,500 birthday bags. The Birthday Giving Program serves over 100 organizations across 37 states (plus the District of Columbia) along with the help of over 100 volunteers.
We have been recognized by several news outlets including CNN, WGN News, and the Naperville Sun.
