After retiring from hospice nursing, Pam found a new way to care for families through Birthday Dreams. For nearly three years, she has brought joy through cakes, deliveries, community events, and birthday celebrations. In this video, she shares why she keeps volunteering and how a simple birthday party can bring hope to a family and remind a child they are special and valued.
