Birthday Dreams works tirelessly to make birthday parties happen for the most vulnerable among us. A birthday party is important for a child because it: Marks the day that child was born, validating who they are. Creates a positive memory in a sea of negative, homeless memories. Helps to ease resentments and bitterness. Puts homeless children on similar footing with their peers. Gives the child joy and hope when his/her life seems hopeless. Creates a feeling of togetherness and dignity for the child and his/her family. Shows the child that the community cares and that they are important.
