Beverly's Birthdays

Enjoy baking for the children's birthday parties and working a the Land of Cheer with Beverly's team.

I can't say enough about this Non-Profit! The culture and mission are unparalleled. The difference they make in the lives of children and families is significant in their community.

Beverly's Birthdays is an amazing organization. The first time I heard about their mission, I knew I needed to get involved as a volunteer. Years later, I was fortunate enough to have an opportunity to serve on the Board. This non-profit has such an incredible impact on children's lives. Megs and her team create joy and happy memories for so many families.

I attended a baby shower and everyone there was so nice and supportive. I got to go home with gifts for my baby and myself. They made me feel special and everyone had a good time. It is nice to go to something where the people genuinely cared about just making the days of others.

Attending the parties with Beverly’s birthdays allows me to directly give back to the community. I have met wonderful people who share the value of providing their love & support to those around them.

Beverly’s Birthdays goes above and beyond for the children and families in our community. They truly help with any resources that are needed in regards to birthday and baby, all while continuing to spread cheer!!

Beverly’s Birthdays Rocks!!! I love what they do for the children in my community.

Beverly’s Birthdays always goes above and beyond at the birthday celebrations. The kiddos at the party always leave with a smile on their face.

Bev's is a phenomenal organization, their ability to spread joy to children and families in need is unparalleled. Listening to just one story of the happiness Bev's pours into the world will warm your heart.

I volunteered with Beverly's Birthdays at a local shelter, it was amazing to see the joy they brought! A mom was there with her children and shared that she thought about what was going to happen while she was staying there with her son's birthday approaching and had no idea what she was going to do. She was surprised and utterly overjoyed when the staff informed her about Beverly's Birthdays and how they were coming to celebrate her son. She also shared how relieved she was and thanked everyone so many times!

It was a memory now I will cherish, seeing the true impact this organization has!

They do so much for the community! Always a great feeling leaving their parties!

I first attended a virtual baby shower when pregnant with my first baby in 2020. The COVID lockdowns were very isolating during a time that should be spent celebrating. I was grateful for the community and cheer that Beverly's Birthdays brought to our family. In 2022, I was pregnant again and signed up to attend an in-person baby shower. I was blown away by the community resources that were available to support our growing family. Now, I volunteer with Beverly's Birthdays and love to help bring the same cheer, celebration and support to expecting/new mothers. In just a few weeks-- my first baby will get to celebrate his 2nd birthday at a Beverly's Birthday party and we can't wait! Thank you Beverly's Birthdays for helping to create a vibrant community full of cheer and support for children of all ages and their families.

After both working and volunteering with Beverly’s Birthdays, I can honestly say holds an unforgettable and truly unique place in the Pittsburgh area. It allows children and families to feel “normal” in the transient, chaotic world many in this population face. Please continue to discover how to support this wonderful organization.

Beverly's Birthdays is a fantastic non-profit I have supported for years. By enabling kids to have essentials like properly fitting clothing and healthy snacks, this organization helps to build up kids' self-esteem and encourage them to work hard in school and become tomorrow's community leaders. The focus on celebrating birthdays helps kids and their families have hope to continue to persevere through difficult circumstances.

Several years ago My Tupperware Distributor introduced us to Megs. It was Tupperware's Birthday month and what a better way to help celebrate than to help others have a birthday. Since then i have done several vendor events that the money was being donated to Beverley's birthdays. I love this nonprofit so much we donate as a family also. We have a daughter that passed away so we send something to Beverly's birthdays to help other kids have parties since our daughter can't . And Megs is an awesome person for starting this nonprofit. WE will continue to contribute to help out.

Beverly's Birthdays provides quality birthday gifts, clothing, baby items, and cheer to so many children and families in the Pittsburgh area. They go above and beyond and ensure everyone is celebrated.

Beverly's Birthdays is such an amazing and unique organization. I love working with Beverly's Birthdays to celebrate milestones for children, teens, and mothers who do not have the financial means to celebrate their special day!

I have been involved in Beverly's birthdays for the last at least 8 years. My oldest is 8 and my youngest is 1 years old. They are so greatful as am I for Beverlys birthday. When we go to an event near their birthday they get so excited especially to see Miss.Meg that is who my kids ask for Everytime I talk about Beverly's birthday. They get so excited to get clothes and little treats and their birthday bag of toys and goodies for their birthday. I love that they have the program because times can get really tough with multiple children's and this gives them the opportunity to have a birthday that they can remember even if mommy can't do everything they want. Sometimes I cry because I am so thankful for them, because I try my best for my babies and they really help make it able to be a good mom for my babies. WE LOVE BEVERLYS BIRTHDAY!!!!

It is a privilege to volunteer with Beverly's Birthdays. The passion behind the organization's mission is unmatched. A great amount of effort, care and most importantly, love, goes into the planning of and carrying out of every birthday party and baby shower. The organization's staff, from the ED on down, truly care about each and every child and family that they serve in the Pittsburgh area. Thanks to Beverly's Birthdays, there are thousands of kids and their family members with smiles on their faces and memories they will cherish for a lifetime. As a volunteer, I have witnessed this first-hand. Beverly's Birthdays is a gift to the Pittsburgh area.

I work for an Agency Partner, and I can not explain the JOY that this particular organization brings to not just the children I work with but myself. The way the kiddos light up when they see their gift and the way the parents are so amazed at how stellar the gifts are is incredible. I am very humbled to be just a small connection is this wonderful journey of birthday cheer. It truly is so rewarding and Megs and her team provide a beautiful service and d0 a wonderful job at making birthday dreams come true.

We have been using this organization for the past year for the kids we serve. It has truly been a blessing to receive the birthday bags for the children especially with the times we are in. Thank you Megz and your team for helping to make great memories for families.

It's such a simple concept - celebrate birthdays. But who actually sets up a program to do just that? Beverly's Birthdays...that's who. Their many programs target those in need to provide a joyous day that many of us take for granted. Birthdays, Baby Showers, and a multitude of different milestones in a child's life that should be celebrated....are celebrated. As a retired individual, there are endless places I can choose to volunteer....I choose Beverly's. This mission speaks to my heart and you can feel how invested their staff is in making each celebration special. I've witnessed their drive to expand and reach more and more people. I love being able to help them in their mission.

Our school agency has had the pleasure of working with Beverly’s Birthdays over the past few years. Their birthday bins and classroom cheer kits have been such a positive experience for our children. I also had the opportunity to volunteer at a party recently and the joy that the staff brought to these children and their families was something I will never forget. The staff are genuinely passionate about their mission and they do an amazing job bringing cheer to all.

This organization is amazing. They throw birthday parties, provide gifts and basic necessities for children experiencing homelessness. From newborn babies to young adults, they truly care about each individual and make them feel special on a day they may otherwise wouldn’t have gotten to celebrate - their birthdays.

They come to our school and provide every student an opportunity to shop for their birthday!!!

Every child deserves to be celebrated on their most special day of the year. Beverly’s Birthday is the gift that will keep on giving long into these children’s futures!

Beverly's Birthdays provides birthday bins for our families. The families appreciate it SO MUCH! Sometimes I can actually see the tension release from a parent's body when they know their child's birthday is covered and they no longer have to stress about finding the money or catching a bus(or 2) to go to the store. The kids always have a great time at the quarterly birthday celebrations and live picking outfits from the birthday boutique- it makes them feel SPECIAL :)

I’ve followed Beverly’s Birthdays since the beginning and still tear up when I share the story and mission. Ms. Megs and her team really are impacting an entire generation of children and giving them simple things... a laugh, a cupcake, a smile, some socks and undies... hope. Things that every child deserves. As a supporter, I look forward to seeing what their next mission will entail!

Imagine you’re a child of any age, and it’s your birthday. Then imagine there’s no party and no presents because your family is homeless or their resources are so limited that a party and presents aren’t possible. That’s where Beverly’s Birthdays steps in!

By throwing parties or offering party supplies, by providing gift packages that include a toy, a book and other items, by allowing the child to pick a new outfit plus providing essentials like PJs, underwear and socks, by supporting moms with some essentials as they prepare to care for newborns, and by offering other related services, Beverly’s Birthdays brings cheer to those celebrating birthdays in Allegheny and Westmoreland Counties in PA.

Whether you can help by volunteering, by providing toys, books, outfits or other items or by making a monetary donation, know you will be giving a child a birthday to remember and giving your own heart a reason to celebrate, too!

Such an amazing non profit!!! Beverlys birthdays has done sensational work in our community. Meg is so awesome and enthusiastic. Our area is very blessed with her talents, generosity and huge heart.

Beverly's Birthdays is truly one of the most extraordinary organizations that is doing life-changing work for children and youth experiencing homelessness. The joy, pride, and celebration that they are instilling into some of our most in need kids is something that cannot really be put into words. Everyone deserves to be celebrated on their birthday as a reminder that their life matters and they're valued. Beverly's Birthdays is making this happen for kids that often don't get this experience, and (for some), who have never had a birthday before in their life. If you want to smile and feel like you're doing something that matters, then look no further than Beverly's Birthdays!

I watched a TV interview several years ago when this was just in start up mode. It really moved my husband and I...we're unable to help physically, but have donated frequently, and will continue to do so. This group does wonderful things for underprivileged children! Love seeing their happy faces in picture! Great job, guys!

I volunteer through my work with a friend. This hits close to home for me, I know what it's like to not have a birthday party and no child should experience this.
what Beverly's Birthdays does for the community is amazing and everyone involved should be commended.They don't do it for the recognition but for the pure joy it brings the children and their families.

My name is Joanne and I am a new volunteer with Beverly's Birthdays. I learned about Beverly's Birthdays while watching Mike Rowes "Returning the Favor". That is when I knew I had to get involved. I have had the pleasure of volunteering at 3 parties. They are fun from start to finish! I love seeing the kids walk into the decorated party room with big smiles on their faces. The parties I have had the privilege of attending have been in places that provide transitional housing, protection from abuse, as well as housing for people dealing with homelessness. But you would not know that for the 90 minutes of pure birthday bliss! As happy as these precious children are when they walk into the room....they are even happier when they leave with treats, new clothes and wonderful memories. Not only are the children happy....their Moms always seem to have smiles on their faces as well. As for me....I cannot wait to sign up for the next birthday party!

I think what this organization does is fantastic but I feel they’ve grown too fast and “ask” for help all of the time but then never follow through. I volunteered at a birthday party over 5 years ago and have donated cupcakes, clothing, toys, backpacks, treat bags for years now. I saw a post a few months back that stated you would get a t-shirt for a $25 donation. I donated $50 hoping to get 2 shirts for my boyfriend and I to wear to raise awareness in the community and on our business page and never received them. I also emailed months ago when they were asking for delivery drivers and offered my help and still have yet to receive a return email. My last straw was when I stopped in for their open house last month with a large bag of 2 piece outfits and let the lady there know that I never received my shirts and she said someone would call me which never happened. I think I will have to choose another local organization to donate to.

I volunteered once for this organization. I will definitely be doing again! It was a great, rewarding experience. I continue to send donations and you can too!!

The true dignity shown to kids by celebrating their very special day and giving the families the tools to provide the tangible assistance is beyond BEAUTIFUL! So very proud to have an organization like this in Pittsburgh serving our most vulnerable neighbors in need.

I have been involved with Beverly's Birthdays for two years now and they are by far my favorite Pittsburgh charity! The joy, love and positivity they spread is awe-inspiring. My favorite memory volunteering with this organization happened at a birthday party. At the end of the party, it was time to sing Happy Birthday to the birthday kids, and when we lit the candle in this little 4 year old girl's cupcake, she lit up like a Christmas tree! After the party was over, she was crying because she didn't want to leave. I highly recommend volunteering at a birthday party!

Beverly's Birthdays is truly going above and beyond as a non-profit in the realm of child and family services. Their mission is unique in its origination of core principles in child development- that children need to feel wanted, celebrated, and special. Can you imagine where you would be today if you didn’t have the heroes and supporters in your childhood to help you discover how important you are? If every child had this privilege that Beverly’s Birthdays has initiated, our society would be built on love, appreciation, and acceptance in ourselves and others. These children, who are at a disadvantage because of life circumstances outside of their control, are offered a chance to feel like a kid should, full of play and happiness. Every program they offer children and families has a distinct purpose and has created waves of cheer throughout Pittsburgh. I encourage everyone to get involved in any way possible that fits your strengths and interests. It is truly special to see the amount of families they impact! As a professional in the field of child and family services, my view of children has been positively impacted by their work and inspired me to take their mission into many other aspects of human services.

Volunteering with Beverly's Birthdays is an unparalleled experience. For a small amount of time, you get to be joy and cheer providers for children and families who so greatly deserve to feel loved, honored, and celebrated. I've volunteered with Beverly's since it's inception, and I could not be more proud to witness it's growth and accomplishments. Megs Yunn and her wonderful team respond to and meet all needs of the vulnerable population they serve. From the parties and presents to baby showers and the new mobile boutique, they have found every way to serve deserving families in Pittsburgh and spread as much love, glitter, and cheer as they possibly can. The world could use more organizations like Beverly's Birthdays.

We absolutely love the work that Beverly's Birthdays is doing. Putting a smile on a child's face on their special day is only part of what they do - they are instilling self confidence in children and showing families that they care.

Absolutely amazing organization with a mission that is exceptional.

Beverly's Birthday's is the best nonprofit organization that provides birthday cheer 365 days a year. Megs took something that was a tiny idea and over the past couple of years it has grown and flourished. Positively affected the lives of so many children! Great work!

I read about this organization in Parents magazine and just felt compelled to help these children have a more positive birthday experience!

The idea of a kid never knowing the joy of celebrating his/her own birth is so heartbreaking, but Beverly's Birthdays warms all those hearts with fun and cheer and a little lightness to give hope, and they make it so easy to help them with their mission. Keep up the excellent work!

What a fantastic idea and so well executed! It's a simple idea, but not easy to make happen and these folks do it so well.

I always enjoy seeing the smiles on the kids' faces at the parties.

Love working with this amazing charity to bring birthday cheer to deserving kids in the Pittsburgh area! It's so easy to volunteer for a charity in my hometown even though I live far away. I love that you can participate with Beverly's in big and small ways. They make it so easy to share the love!

I have had nothing but positive experiences in my volunteer work with Beverly's Birthdays. They do amazing work for providing celebrations for children's birthdays with food, themed cupcakes, activities and gifts. And their work expands to baby showers for expectant mothers who might otherwise not have all that is needed for their baby. Plus they make sure that grade school children aren't left out on their birthdays and can bring a treat to share with the class.
The children and their parent(s) are so appreciative of these events. It is heartwarming to see that they have something on their birthdays that they might not otherwise get.
Beverly's Birthday's fills a void in the lives of so many. They are awesome.

I volunteered for a party once and it was a fantastic experience from all aspects. I even interviewed for a job at Beverlys birthdays not long after and everyone was so kind. The job wasn't a right fit, but I would absolutely not hesitate to continue to volunteer.

I also work with children experiencing homelessness at my job and can attest to the importance of the work they do here.

The growth of this charity speaks volumes to the importance of their mission. Every child is made to feel special and important. And you can't put a dollar value on that....it's priceless!

Beverly's Birthdays does a great job reminding each kid of their innate dignity! Thanks for bringing so many smiles to Pittsburgh!

I volunteered at Beverly's Birthdays two years ago with my work. Since that time, I tell everyone that I can about this wonderful organization. They bring birthday joy to children who, otherwise, might not experience the birthday joy we take for granted! Nothing but positive things to say about them!

This organization has a great mission and serves a great purpose. This said, I attended the annual fund raiser for this organization in 2017 and was less than impressed. The structure of the fund raiser was not designed to raise significant funds for the coming year. Instead, this was structured as an adult party/get together. The organization did set up a table with silent auction material, but the options were not signficant and not going to attract big dollars. This was very troubling. Further, the organizations leaders did not stand and deliver. The young lady that founded the organization did speak, but it the communication was not significant and did not generate the desire for those in attendance to open up their wallets to support the organization in a big way. Further, it appeared to me the founder doesn't have a great deal of experience in managing a not-for-profit which has prevented this organization from getting the right funding and exposure. Given what I saw at the event, this organization needs reassess itself and get on the right path now. I don't believe I will be a donor until I see significant improvements with management. While the founder has a passion for the mission, the founder has not displayed the ability to manage the organization for greater success.

The mission of Beverly's Birthdays is impressive. This stated I attended this not-for-profits annual fund raising event in 2017. I was not impressed with the management of the event and was not impressed with the leadership. The venue for the event, PNC Park, is a nice location, but is not designed to help this organization raise signficant funds that will help support the mission throughout the following year. The organizations leadership did not seem visible during the event and did not make a meaningful effort to thank the attendees and take the opportunity to use the time to raise significant funds. Further, it does not appear that current leadership has any not-for-profit management experience, thus hurting this organization from advancing further in overall funding growth. Leadership does appear to have passion for the mission, but does not seem to know how to manage that passion to turn the organization into a more powerful and helpful not-for-profit. I do not believe I will donate to this organization in the future given my obvservations from the event.

Making children's day one party at a time. Can you imagine not ever having your own slice of birthday cake? Something so many of us take for granted... yet some children are almost teenagers or even adults before they were blessed with Beverlys to be able to give them that!

And they do so much more, for mothers, food banks.. this organization is one that is close to my heart because every birthday is worth celebrating

This is a wonderful program that warms my heart. Every child deserves to feel special on their day.

Beverly's Birthday brings light and joy to troubled, impoverished, and homeless children. The children that are so often forgotten by their families and/or society are celebrated on their birthday. If even for just a moment, they can forget all of their worries and just be a kid. That moment of joy that each child experiences is truly a gift.

This non-profit is worth investing in. Because they invest in our children and our future by showing the children that in the darkness there is light and hope for a better tommorrow.

When volunteering I got to see the smiles on all the kids faces and the joy of getting a party. I am so happy to have found this wonderful organization. Getting to see the good they do first hand has been a blessing to me. I am new but am looking forward to many more parties! So glad someone cared and started this beautiful birthday party organization.

My daughter and I have been volunteering for Beverly’s Birthdays for several months. Not only is the mission bringing joy to children with significant need throughout Pittsburgh, the charity is providing an important lens into what it is like for a child to grow up with less for the rest of us. This lesson has had a significant impact on my daughter, as well as many children in our community who have participated in fundraisers for this great group. To not be celebrated — no child should feel that. In addition to a great cause, this group is a class act. Welcoming, encouraging, collaborating, and creative — I volunteer a lot, and they are a pleasure to work with every time.

I honestly never even thought about children not having a birthday party until Megs started this amazing charity. Celebrating your birthday is something that is so normal for the rest of us that it's hard to imagine not doing it. The number of children this organization has helped is truly amazing! The volunteers work very hard to bring a little bit of fun and joy into these children's lives. I am in awe of exactly how many birthday parties they have but yet there are still more than could benefit from this charity.

Beverly's Birthdays continues to look for more children they can help. I love how they make sure kids have a treat to bring into school on their birthday. I can only imagine how embarrassing it would be for a child to not be able to share a treat with their classmates on their birthday. This organization makes sure these children don't have to worry about that and can focus on celebrating their special day.

You cannot measure just how valuable Beverly's Birthdays is to our community. As they continue to expand and work on touching more children's lives I can't wait to see what they do next!

This nonprofit is awesome. They do such creative and meaningful work, and they are all so very nice. One of my favorites!

This organization is so committed to such a simple task, spreading birthday cheer! Such a positive and happy organization to have in the community.

Beverly's Birthdays is an amazing organization that digs deeper than supplying material needs for the communities they serve; they celebrate every individual by gifting them love and hope. They keep true to their mission of spreading cheer to the people they serve, which is such an overlooked need in under-served communities. Maslow's hierarchy states that after the very basic human needs of food and shelter is the need for love and belonging, of recognition. This is where Beverly's Birthdays steps in and goes above and beyond by spending time with the children. It's not just about dropping off goods, it's about building relationships and creating unforgettable memories with the children and families they celebrate.

I've had the pleasure of attending a fundraising event sponsored by Beverly's Birthdays. I was extremely impressed by their professionalism and hospitality. I believe that their cause is one of the more altruistic and impactful of non-profits I've encountered in the past. They are doing great work and I hope they continue to grow in their outstanding contributions to the community.

You won't find a more altruistic group of leaders and volunteers on a mission to make the world a better place for children. I'm always humbled by their dedication and purity of heart.

Beverly's Birthdays fills a need for a population of children who are at-risk and benefit significantly by the protective factors that targeted celebrations offer.

The work they do is so needed and they do it amazingly well!

I've had the pleasure of volunteering for a couple of Beverly's Birthdays events, and will say that the experiences they provide the children through their programs is truly amazing! There are no words to describe the emotions felt after witnessing the happiness and gratitude these children express at the birthday parties. The couple of hours spent playing party games and eating cupcakes may seem like no big deal, but it means the world to the children.

The group of individuals running this organization are so passionate about what they do and should be commended for all the hard work they've accomplished to grow the organization.

What a caring, unique, and thoughtful organization. With a focus as simple as bringing joy and hope to those in a dark time, it is hard not to love the mission of Beverly's Birthdays. I gladly donate monthly to help the staff carry out that mission; their passion is contagious and thoughtfulness unmatched. Kudos to the entire team!

Beverlys Birthdays makes it so easy to volunteer! Enjoy being behind the scenes? Make some treat bags and send them over! Great fun, great organization!

I have been helping with Beverly's BIrthdays since the beginning of the year. This is such an amazing organization that is doing wonderful work in and around Pittsburgh. When I first got involved, I was surprised to learn that the organization is as new as it is, because it is so well-run and has such a foothold in the community. They make it so easy to volunteer. Communication is wonderful, and you can tell how much they care about their mission and the people they help.

In addition to the wonderful work Beverly's Birthdays does, I have been impressed with the enthusiasm and dedication of my fellow Board members. Beverly's Birthday has grown dramatically in the last three years serving more children in more ways -- yet has remained focused on its mission. In every facet of all the services provided, every child helped has been reminded of their being special and their life is worth celebrating.

I became involved with Beverly's Birthdays through a project in Grad School and have since become a volunteer, donor and board member. I couldn't be more proud to be associated with this organization! The work that they do for children who are in need or even in crisis makes a huge impact. Beyond their work, volunteering for Beverly's Birthdays is fun, well-organized and very rewarding! I dropped off cupcakes to a party and you should have seen the look on the kiddo's faces! Pure joy! The staff are truly the most dedicated people I have come across in non-profit work. You see it in every facet of their programming. A great organization with an amazing mission all around! :-)

Beverly's is special in so many ways. The organization fills a need in the Pittsburgh community and beyond unlike any other of our wonderful non-profits. Many of the children Beverly's serves would likely go without any birthday celebration at all. By providing them with a celebration of their very own, Beverly's gives them the tangibles - cake, presents, etc.; but more importantly, a smile, great memories and hope. It is my absolute honor to be a part of this unique organization.

Their mission is so pure, the staff and leadership are amazing and they have positively impacted so many children

I have had the privilege of witnessing Beverlys Birthdays early begins to becoming a large non-profit working in 7 different counties surrounding Pittsburgh. Firsthand, I have seen them touch not just thousands of children but families too. The staff genuinely cares about the community and children they serve. They provide much more than a party for the children but a lasting positive memory in a time when they may not have any happy memories to hold on too.

This is a great organization helping a very precious and under-recognized part of the population!!

I have been a supporter of Beverly's Birthdays for at least 3 years. I have had the privilege of interacting with their staff. They are highly motivated & positively professional as they strive to make a difference in the lives of children & allowing US to make a difference in our own lives by being involved with them in whatever capacity we choose. Be it make cupcakes, help with a party, support newborns & their mothers. And when it is all said and done, Beverly's Birthdays is faithful to THANK all who support their efforts. EVERYONE has a Birthday & Everyone should be celebrated.

What an honor and privilege it has been to be witness to all of the great works that Beverly's Birthdays has accomplished over that past 3.5 years. It is not quite possible to put a value on the smiles they bring to children or the memories they ingrain for their families. Truly a wonderful organization.

I am beyond proud to support this organization. The staff and board brilliantly deliver on a special mission to organize birthday parties for economically-disadvantaged children who otherwise might not be celebrated on their special day.

I've really enjoyed working with Beverly's Birthdays - it's a awesome way to make sure every child feels special on his/her birthday -- and what an amazing gift that is! The staff is wonderful and has fantastic ideas for parties. It's really a pleasure to be a small part of their great work!

Beverly's Birthdays not only brightens and instills value in the lives of children inflicted by the most unfortunate circumstances, but allows any one with a willing heart to say with their own special time and talents — HAPPY BIRTHDAY! Bakers, treat bag makers, party volunteers, and me (graphic designer for Bev's) are given a truly accessible, meaningful and pure opportunity to express to these children — YOU MATTER. Your birthday matters, and you have the capacity to give to others in your own way too. A beautiful cycle of hope and ACTION has been born out of Beverly's Birthdays, and I encourage companies, families and individuals to join the cheer train! Kudos to the team and everyone involved in this organization.

I have had the pleasure of volunteering for Beverly's Birthday for the past 2 years. I am so proud of how organization has grown. Everyone involved works so hard to make the birthday celebrations fun, exciting and something these children will remember. As a teacher myself for a lower-income area being able to help outside the classroom means a lot to me. These children just enjoy all of us being there. Seeing the children become excited and feel loved on their birthday is an amazing thing. This organization has grown and flourished into something so wonderful to the Pittsburgh area. We are so lucky to have this program.

I've volunteered with Beverly's Birthdays for ~1 year and am constantly inspired by their amazing work. Their small staff is extremely dedicated, and the impact on these children is immediately evident when you attend a birthday party. It is the most rewarding volunteer experience I have ever participated in, and I hope the organization continues to grow and do amazing work throughout the region!

I donated party bags to a birthday party last month. I felt wonderful and I think what Beverly's Birthdays does is wonderful, because it gives the children a chance of having a special day that they get to look forward to. Beverly's Birthdays came to my job at EDMC and as soon as I found out what the organization stood for I wanted to be involved. I think it is wonderful what they do here and I hope the organization continues to grow.

I found Beverly's Birthdays on a friends facebook page and as soon as I saw what they were about, I wanted involved! I have only been a small part of the wonderful volunteer circuit they have, but can feel the impact I make with every birthday bag I make and donate. I have been inspired to do and give more in other places since getting involved with them. I love this organization and all it means, as I was homeless as a child for 2 years. I was separated from my family, but was fortunate enough to have a friends family take me in. I have often thought of what would of or could of happened to me had noone opened their hearts to me. The selflessness it took for them to take me in. I want to impact lives the way they impacted mine, and Beverlys Birthdays gives me a way to do that. My Daisy troop has since gotten involved and also our school, the feedback and results from both have been amazing. Getting the word out for this little hometown nonprofit with a big heart at it's center!!!!

I met Megs two years ago at a rapid talk session facilitated by nonprofit organization, The Sprout Fund. As soon as she began her speech, I was intrigued. The desire to bring joy and celebration to those less fortunate is not an uncommon one. The ability to make it happen is. Megs and her troupe of birthday enthusiasts give to children what no one else can- the value of a birthday and the sense of importance and appreciation. While I am not able to donate enough of my time or earnings to Beverly's Birthdays, I am ever so grateful to have donated what I had. Many cheers for many years of birthday celebrations!

I am honored to be a small cog in Beverly's Birthdays operation. This organization not only provides amazing celebrations for the kids they serve, but also provides the food bank with hundreds of "birthdays in a bag" for less fortunate families to have what they need to celebrate. In addition, they provide treat bags for homeless/underprivileged youth in certain schools so they can share their special day with their classmates! The work they do is creating stronger families, happier youth, and shining a light on childhood homelessness. Pittsburgh is proud to have them.

I have been fortunate to volunteer at a few birthday parties throughout this past year, and I am so thankful that I have. The work and effort that Megs and her team put forth to make every child feel special is inspiring. For a child who may never have been able to have a birhday party before, the significance of this event cannot even be described. Each party provides the essentials: cupcakes, candles, gifts based on what the child likes, games, crafts, etc. Each party is also themed, and my favorite so far was the Wild West, where I taught a line dancing lesson to the song Wagon Wheel. I can't tell you who was smiling more, the kids or the volunteers, because everyone was having such a good time! Beverly's Birthdays is hands down my favorite charity to volunteer for.

Beverly's Birthdays is such a caring and giving organization that I am proud to be a part of. I have volunteered as a party helper, donated gifts and have provided cupcakes. I have received many cards in the mail from the organization thanking me for my help. They value their volunteers and really make you feel like you have made a difference in a child's life. Seeing the happiness on the children's faces makes you want to help out everyday. The activites planned for the parties are very interactive and fun, the children love it! Beverly's Birthdays is my favorite nonprofit organization.

I heard about Beverly's Birthdays at the KDKA Hometown Heroes Event in early 2014. After listening to their story with tears in my eyes, i knew i wanted to do something for this wonderful organization. So i signed up to volunteer. It makes my heart smile every time I am a part of making one of these birthday parties happen. i am blessed to be able to help out. Thank you Megs and Team for all you do for these kids. You are giving them memories they will never forget.

Smiles, replace frowns. Creative games, replace boredom. Smiles, replace tears. Cheer, replaces anxiety. And, a single candle on a cupcake, shines brightly in the hearts of children who find themselves homeless on their birthdays. I just could not be more humbled and grateful to be part of an organization that promises to bring, even for a short while, joy into the lives of children who face homeless every day.

Beverly's Birthdays is an amazing organization that I have had the privilege to volunteer with. They create an unforgettable day for so many special children. This organization allows children in difficult situations to escape for a moment and just be kids! There are truly dedicated and amazing people who work hard to create and foster a positive and loving situation for everyone who attend their celebrations.

I only worked with this organization for a brief time and would like to get more involved, but i can honestly say it was such a great time, what they are doing for these kids is amazing and everyone they have involved truly wants to be there and cares about helping these children. It is an honor to even have been allowed to join in with their efforts.

When volunteering with Beverly's at a local shelter, I was talking with a teenage child that was living there. Her birthday party was being planned for the following month and I asked her what theme she wanted her party to be. She responded, "I don't even care what the theme is, I'm just so thankful to be having a birthday party." It's moments like these that make you realize how amazing of an organization Beverly's Birthdays really is. They are touching the lives of so many children, one birthday party at a time! Such a fantastic group of people supporting an amazing mission.

At my first birthday party as a volunteer there was a 6 year old boy who got a bag of cheese puffs as part of his present. He ran around the room screaming and yelling in tears of joy. He never had a cheese puff before, had only heard of them and wished some day he would have the chance to try them :) There is nothing more priceless than to see children full of happiness and that's what Beverly's Birthdays is all about - the kids and their joy.

This is by far the best small Non Profit Organization around. I have helped with many and none compare to the dedication of the Executive Director at Beverly's Birthdays. Their only intent is to help the children. Amazing!

I have been involved with Beverly's Birthdays for almost a year now. They are a fantastic organization. Everyone I have met along the way has been wonderful to work with and very passionate about what they do.

What an amazing organization. Truly just a few dedicated people make so many children happy. The smiles they bring to each individual, making them feel special and cared about for their birthdays.
It is truly well run, efficient, and serves a wonderful purpose.

I think the most rewarding thing when attending a Beverly's Birthdays party is seeing the smiles on the children's faces. It just makes it all worth while! This orginization works hard to make sure that every child in attendance is special. A high level of "Birthday Cheer" is always there for every party they provide.

Beverly's Birthdays is a non-profit with a big heart, strong focus and passionate people; from each volunteer all the way up to the executive director. The growth that the organization has experienced in the last year is astounding, and has allowed Beverly's Birthdays to serve so many more children in need of some birthday cheer.

I worked for the permanent housing program that Beverly's Birthdays approached to pilot their project. I was able to see, first-hand, the impact they had on the 50 children we had living there. Every week, kids would ask me if Beverly's was coming that night and would explode with excitement when the answer was yes. Many of the children in the program did not have the chance to celebrate their birthday the way "normal" children do. Beverly's Birthdays was the answer to a void that our organization alone could not fill.

As a provider, our job was to nurture the growth of the family unit. By celebrating a child's birthday, we saw a positive bonding experience between children and their parents and peers. It allowed each child to celebrate their own unique personality. Without Beverly's Birthdays, there would be 50 less children in the world untouched by Birthday Cheer! Bravo!

This is an amazing organization that brings so much passion, excitement, and commitment to the children of surrounding communities. I had the opportunity to volunteer and to see the shear joy on every kid's face was amazing. I was so impressed that I spoke with the President of my company and we will be putting on a pot luck lunch in to raise money for this organization.

What a great organization, amazing people, and even a better cause! I'm sure we can all look back and remember how great it was to have a Birthday Party. Every kid deserves that feeling & this organization works tirelessly to make that possible. Beverly's Birthdays is truly a n awesome orginization!!!

I just love the way this organization is so hyper-focused on making their mission become a reality. A truly wonderful cause being carried out by passionate, intelligent, caring people.

Every child should have the opportunity to celebrate their special day each year! It's great knowing that such a wonderful organization like Beverly's Birthdays works around the clock to help make this a reality!

Beverly's birthday is a great organization. I see the photos of the kids at the parities and it's bring a joy to me knowing the won't go another year without a party. Mega Yunn and the entire Beverley's Birthday team are energetic, fun, wonderful people!

The concept is simple and very profound. To see the smile in the face of the children is priceless. The day I heard about them in CBS, I was touched and became a full supporter of their cause. I watch them grow consistently. I am a donor to support their cause. I teach in a Sunday school and I sincerely wish to partner with Beverly's Birthdays by involving the youth in our Sunday school to volunteer and support their cause. I actively campaign for them among my friends circle.

I just love Beverly's Birthdays Mission!! The impact the parties have on the lives of these kids is immeasurable. I have had the pleasure of being a baking volunteer for 2 parties so far. It has been such a joy to be a part of and I look forward to many more to come!

There are honestly no words that accurately explain what Beverly's Birthdays does for homeless children and their families. When people first find out about Beverly's, they are automatically touched by the mission. However, it reaches far beyond that when you actually witness the happiness of a child at a birthday celebration. Megs is truly special, and Beverly's Birthdays is extremely impressive for being such a young organization.

I met Megs, the founder of Beverly's Birthdays, last year when she was establishing her organization and developing relationships within the homeless service provider community in and around Pittsburgh. Beverly's Birthdays has a compelling mission that is addressing a need that has gone unmet until now. Children in homeless situations face countless challenges on a daily basis; making time for celebration and joy is often lost in the intense struggle to secure housing, food and other basic needs. Beverly's Birthdays is to be commended for recognizing the incredible significance of such celebrations in the lives of children who are enduring tough times. This creative, passionate, fun-loving and responsible team is making such a difference and I am proud that our organizations are able to support each other's work with children and youth experiencing homelessness.

Beverly's Birthdays is a wonderful organization with big heart behind it! I am in awe by the passion, dedication and enthusiasm that founder Megs Yunn pours into Beverly's Birthdays. Beverly's Birthdays is there to make sure that children in need are celebrated on their most important day. Megs and her cheer squad don't just provide these children with birthday celebrations. They show these children that they are loved!

I recently became familiar with Beverley's Birthday and totally fell in love with their mission. I instantly became a volunteer. Megs Yunn, founder of Beverly's Birthdays is a mastermind when it comes to helping homeless and at risk children get the birthday celebrations they deserve. As a volunteer, I am so impressed at the motivation, determination, and organization of Megs and her Beverley's Birthdays crew. Megs runs a well oiled machine....No doubt. I am honored to be a small part of something that reaches so many. All children deserve a birthday...Beverley's Birthdays makes that happen! Way to go Megs and crew! Way to go Beverley's Birthdays!!!

I have known the founder of Beverly's Birthdays, Megs Yunn, for many years. She has the biggest heart and the most creative sense of service of anyone I know. When she first told me about Beverly and her idea for this organization I was hooked. The love that she puts into every aspect of it from training the volunteers to the birthday in a box is beyond measure. I don't live in the area but I hope to visit on a party day so I can see first hand the excitement in the kids eyes when the party starts. Pittsburgh is lucky to have such a wonderful person leading such a fabulous organization!!

It is amazing to see how much the children appreciate these birthday parties. With the little children it is no surprise that they love it. When you see the teenagers fully involved, helpful, unselfish it reminds you how something as little as a cupcake and party games can change a child's day. They ask for so little, a basketball, nail polish, candy, but it means the world to them. I have definitely been blessed to work with this non-profit.

The organization started with such heart, and that overflows into every aspect of its operations. Even in my research to become involved, I can feel the energy and excitement that is committed. Not to mention what a tremendous need it fulfills – bringing recognition and joy to populations at risk. There is indeed more to celebrate!

My daughter created Beverly's Birthdays in order to provide birthday celebrations for homeless children living in shelters in the Pittsburgh area. I am so proud of the work she and the team have accomplished. It is an honor to donate to this fantastic organization--every dime is a dime well spent! Each month I donate the birthday party craft and it is so rewarding to know that the children enjoy the activities. I have helped create spider hats, baseball pennants, guitars, and a mad scientist game. Get involved with this great organization and help them to spread birthday cheer! www.beverlysbirthdays.org

Beverly's Birthdays provides at-risk youth with a birthday party celebration and gifts that make them feel special on their special day! Beverly's Birthdays serves three shelters in the Greater Pittsburgh Area, allowing all children from that shelter to participate in monthly birthday celebrations. Each celebration is decided on by the child's age...ranging from Super Hero parties to Beach-themed parties! Different activities are created for each birthday party like pin the baseball on home plate and water balloon tosses. Each party also has crafts for the kids to make so everyone has something to call their own. After a pizza dinner, we sing "happy birthday" to the birthday boy or girl and they get to make a wish and blow out their very own birthday candles. In my family, birthdays are always a big celebration in which we are surrounded by family and friends. For these kids, they are not as fortunate, many of which never even have a birthday cake, let alone a party. Beverly's Birthdays mission is priceless...touching children in a way no other nonprofit can.

My wife started Beverly's Birthdays in order to help children in need. It has been an honor to be a part of the building of this great organization. Every party I attend is an absolute blast and you can see firsthand why the work we do is so important. Our family is deeply devoted to service and I love that we are able to contribute in such a positive way to our community.

I have been volunteering for this organization since the summer and I have loved it! When I heard what this organziation did for the children of Pittsburgh, I wanted to be involved with such a wonderful idea. The children that we celebrate each month are so greatful and excited to share in the celebration of each others birthdays. It gives them a sense of belonging and being a party of something wonderful. I think that Beverly's Birthday is a fantastic organziation and I can't wait to see how far this idea can grow! I am so thankful to be a part of this organization.

I have seen and worked with Beverly's Birthdays since it began. I truly cannot put into words the many blessings and life-changing experiences this organization has not only provided me, but countless youth in Pittsburgh, PA. The world needs more people like Megs Yunn, the founder of Beverly's. Yunn has made it her life mission to spread birthday cheer to homeless children living in Pittsburgh. The atmosphere of an actual Beverly's Birthdays party is pretty unexplainable. Check it out on YouTube to get a better understanding, but just know that it is full of laughter, fun, and of course lots & lots of birthday cheer. The joy on each of these kids faces as they hear their peers sing "Happy Birthday" and blow out their candles, is something that I will take with me forever. Beverly's Birthdays deserves every compliment, every donation dollar, and every review star they can get.

I had the privilege of volunteering at a Beverly's Birthday party. It was such an amazing opportunity and it is so evident how much the kids and parents appreciate all of Megs' hard work. Having worked with Megs in the past, I know how much passion she has for her projects. Beverly's Birthday is going to be a great success because of her and I can't wait to see where it goes!

Beverly's Birthdays is a great organization. I baked for one of their parties, and hope to do so again. It seems that volunteers at the parties are enthusiastic and invested in bringing 'birthday cheer' to all of the kids.

It is so rewarding to be the Founder of Beverly's Birthdays. I am so grateful for the volunteers, friends and family who have helped make Beverly's Birthdays a reality. When Beverly told me how she had never had a birthday party or a slice of a birthday cake I was compelled to take action. I can't believe how far we have come in the last 18 months! Hooray for spreading birthday cheer!
