Celebrating Because You Matter

05/19/2026

Imagine being a child and wondering if anyone will celebrate your birthday this year. 💜

We are working to make sure children in foster care feel special, celebrated, and deeply loved on their big day.

Right now, we are asking our community for help. Whether it’s a monetary donation, gift card, party supplies, or simply sharing our mission, every bit of support helps us create magical birthday moments for children who deserve to feel seen and valued.

A birthday may seem small to some, but to a child who has experienced hardship or uncertainty, it can mean everything.

If you’ve been looking for a way to make a real difference locally, this is it. Help us remind these children that they matter, they are important, and they are worthy of celebration. 🎂✨

Thank you for believing in our mission and helping us spread kindness one birthday at a time.

✨ We’re Almost Halfway There! ✨

Because of your generosity, we’re getting closer to making something truly special happen.

We’re almost halfway to our goal, and every single donation is helping us bring meaningful birthday celebrations to children in foster care—reminding them they are seen, valued, and loved.

We still have a little ways to go, and we need your help to cross that finish line. Whether it’s a donation, a share, or simply spreading the word, it all makes a difference.
💫 Together, we can make sure every child feels celebrated… because they matter.
👉 Donate, share, and help us get the rest of the way there!

We are so grateful for the support we’ve received so far!

Because of your generosity, we’ve raised $250 toward our goal of $2,400.

Every single dollar brings us one step closer to launching our first celebration and continuing our mission to make sure every child feels seen, valued, and celebrated.

We still have $2,150 to go, and we truly believe we can get there together. If you’ve been thinking about donating or sharing our mission, now is the time—it all makes a difference.

Thank you for believing in Celebrating Because You Matter.

We need your help

We are still about $2,400 away from where we need to be.

To move forward with our mission , we need to:
Maintain a $2,000 minimum bank balance to avoid fees
Secure funding to apply for our 501(c)(3) status
Launch our very first birthday celebration for children who deserve to feel seen, celebrated, and loved

This is about children who may have never had a real birthday celebration.

One full birthday experience = $200
That means we need just:
12 people to give $200
OR 24 people to give $100
OR 48 people to give $50

Every single dollar brings us closer to celebrating our very first child.

If you’ve been thinking about donating—this is the moment.
If you can’t donate, sharing this post helps more than you know.

Help us make sure no child feels forgotten on their birthday.

📲 Donate here: https://celebratingbecauseyoumatter.org

We will be posting updates as we get closer—because we believe this community can make this happen together.

Reminding every child in foster care that they matter.
