Please consider dropping off a new, unwrapped toy
~ OR ~ party supplies (candles, gift wrap, tape, gift bags, tissue paper, birthday banners, small party plates and napkins, table cloths)
~OR ~ gift cards to Target or Walmart (preferably in $25 amounts, as they make perfect gifts for teenagers who love to pick out specifically what they want for their birthday).

We started simply in just one shelter...
For helping make this possible! YOU are making a difference for the children in our community!!
At Simply Birthdays, our mission is to provide birthday celebrations for children living in local shelters with either an in-person party or a "birthday in a box." We believe that every child deserves to feel special on their birthday, and we're dedicated to making that happen. Thanks to the generosity of our community, we bring joy, laughter, and unforgettable experiences to children who might otherwise miss out on the magic of their special day.

YOU can be someone who makes a positive impact in the lives of one of these children. Your help matters! Volunteer to help, make a donation, or sponsor a party. We can't do this work without you!
