Birthdays For All
“Every child deserves to celebrate their birthday” that is the motto and guidelines that Birthdays for All follows. Birthdays for All is a 501(c)(3) locally founded non-profit organization that was founded by Steffi Green and Ben Wong. It is their mission to provide every child in foster care with a birthday gift. Many children in foster care can be overlooked and special days can be forgotten due to lack of resources. Birthdays for All partners with the South Carolina Department of Social Services to gather gift wish lists from children in Dorchester, Berkeley, and Charleston counties.
This June we have partnered with Birthday’s for All to help gather gifts for children with July birthdays. In our reception area we have an awesome birthday balloon tree decorated with birthday gift wishes. Each wish list is no more than $30.00. Stop in, pick a wish, and bring the gift back before June 30th to deliver to a child with a July Birthday. You may also donate via check, Venmo, or online to buy a gift for a child.
There are so many ways to reach out and assist this organization. You can volunteer as a “wrapper,” host a toy drive, or simply make a donation direct to the organization. When you donate to Birthday’s for All, 100% of your donation goes towards purchasing gifts.
At the end of May 2023, approximately 3,767 children in the state of South Carolina were in foster care. 458 of those children are in Charleston, Dorchester, and Berkeley County. There is a great need for foster parents in the state. Foster parents are more than just caregivers. A foster parent is a lifelong advocate and friend.
