The Happy Birthday Project

The Happy Birthday Project OVER 10,000 Birthday celebrations for in-need children have been made possible thanks to the volunteers and donors of The Happy Birthday Project!

We believe every child deserves to feel special and celebrated on their birthday. Our mission is to bring joy to the lives of children and families facing adverse circumstances through the celebration of birthdays, holidays, and other special life events. We deliver party packs that include all the decorations and supplies required to throw a birthday party as well as a new gift for the birthday child. The families we serve are referred to us through local social agencies.

New request!🚨

🎂 URGENT: WE NEED CHOCOLATE CAKE MIX! 🎂

Our chocolate cake mix shelves are EMPTY—and we need your help to bring birthdays to life!

We celebrate over 100 birthdays every month for vulnerable children in our community, and every birthday bag includes a cake mix, a tub of icing, and sprinkles. But right now, we’re out of the always popular chocolate cake mix — and that means some kids may miss out on the joy of celebrating this sweet part of their special day.

✨ Here’s how you can help:

Check your local grocery store - anything $2.00 or less is a great deal! Grab a few and donate!
Every box of cake mix = one more child who gets to feel special, seen, and celebrated on their special day.
Let’s make sure no child goes without a birthday.

👉 Drop off your donations at our building in West Hillhurst NW anytime during our open hours.

Thank you for being part of the magic. 💜🎉

PS - we do have an Amazon Wish List - but we’re having a hard time finding these there now!

DONATIONS NEEDED!

It’s not a party without STREAMERS! 🎊
And we have none! 👀

An essential part of our birthday bags is a few simple decorations to make every childs’ table feel a little more decorated & special….just for them!
We need over 100 packs of streamers every month! 🛍️

If you want to support The Happy Birthday Project, shop local and drop off to our West Hillhurst NW building, or have a look at our Amazon.ca Wish List where you can shop, donate & ship directly to us! 📦

Today, we honour Jawad and the love that continues to surround his memory. 💫

LEGO was Jawad’s favourite, he especially loved Pokémon Lego sets and would build displays to surprise his family and friends with his exciting LEGO creations. 💙

His loving family collected Lego, toys, cake mix, icing, party supplies and decorations in his memory, to support local children facing crisis and bring happiness and joy on their birthdays. 🎂

We’re deeply grateful for the El-Sarji and Soboh families for putting together this incredible donation drive in memory of Jawad.💗

Thank you🥰

With love and gratitude,
