I became involved with Box of Balloons as a way to introduce my young daughter to charitable giving. Box of Balloons is helping us, just as much as we are helping them. Blessed to be part of something doing such good in our communities.
One of my favorite things about Box of Balloons, is enabling the parents of these sweet kiddos. All of the Box of Balloons action/volunteering takes place behind the scene. We provide the ability for parents/caregivers to celebrate their children with a birthday. That's special.
I fell in love with what this organization was doing the second I read about it. I knew immediately I wanted to get involved. I came from a careers working with many of these children, and I knew I wanted to find some way to make life a bit more normal for them even if it was one day a year...
I love Box of Balloons! Growing up my mom always threw my sisters and I the best themed birthday parties, now I love to do the same for my kiddos. It makes me so sad to think there are lots of children who don't get a happy celebration and so many parents who can't throw their child a party. I love that Box of Balloons helps parents in need give their child a celebration to remember, a day filled with happiness and hope.
Box of Balloons is an amazing organization that works to ensure that each child is celebrated on his/her special day! By way of party decorations, cupcakes, and a birthday gift, we are providing not only smiles on the faces of less fortunate families in our community, we are giving hope for better days ahead and an opportunity for them to take a break from the hardships in their lives. Each item donated positively impacts that child's life.
Please consider joining our efforts so that every child can be celebrated.
Saying yes to a volunteering opportunity for Box of Balloons is an absolutely incredible way to love others in a super-simple way !! I've been blessed by choosing to share a little of my time and or money to bring a smile to a little ones face! This organization has opened my eyes to the needy in my community and has shown me that there are easy ways to help bring a little sunshine to those who need it most; children! It's amazing what can happen when a few people decide to open their hearts and spread the love via a Box of Balloons:)
Box of Balloons is a great organization helping children celebrate their birthday! I'm so honored to be a part of this organization and raise my daughter teaching her the value of giving back. If I can help bring a smile to even just one child, it warms my heart :) there are so many ways to volunteer and donate! Check it out, you won't regret it!
Help a child celebrate one of the reasons being a child is so much fun!!! Spread the fun, spread the love!
I fell in love with this charity the second I heard our director explain this 'idea' she had for our community. I have been on the board, getting this organization rolling since day one and it has been one of the most positive experiences of my life. While some people may say that a birthday celebration is trivial, I say they are wrong. We are walking into the lives of children who don't have much to hope for at that moment in time, or who have never been celebrated before. We are giving them a day full of meaning, joy, and hope and reaffirming that they are worth it. All while empowering their parents/caregivers by giving them everything they would need to give their child an amazing birthday party. Not only that, we are getting communities involved. We would never be able to do what we do without our community members/volunteers. It has been simply amazing to see the kind and giving hearts and soles that are right in our very own backyards.
