Birthday Dreams

Birthday Dreams provides a dream birthday to homeless children ages 1 to 18 years. We partner with over 80 shelters in King, Pierce, and Snohomish counties. Some hold hosted group parties where our volunteers throw the party and some hold non-hosted group parties. Birthday Dreams relies on community support to achieve our mission and make a difference in the life of a child – one birthday at a time.

Donate a store-bought cake so a youth to celebrate their birthday with their cottage mates. You'll be demonstrating that the community cares and sometimes the cakes we bring are the first they've ever received. With 14 birthdays in June alone, the kitchen staff can't keep up with making all the needed cakes. Questions? email info@echoglen.org

Birthday Drives: Birthdays are important because it's an opportunity for a child to develop a sense of identity and a feeling of self-worth, as they feel recognized and valued for who they are and their growth over the years. For a family struggling to pay rent, put meals on the table, or afford diapers, birthday gifts aren't going to be a priority. KidVantage wants all kids to experience the joys of celebrating their birthday, AND WE NEED YOUR HELP. This summer we're hosting our Birthday Buddies drives, where you can collect new toys and give parents and caregivers a chance to celebrate their children on their special day! If you'd like to host, visit our website to sign-up! www.kidvantagenw.org/organize-a-drive
