THE WHY

 

Every life is precious and worthy of esteem and every child deserves to be celebrated!


Child psychologists agree that the traditions and celebrations surrounding birthdays are important, special and a necessary part of childhood.


One of the greatest joys for a parent is to create beautiful, memorable celebrations for your kids birthdays. But sadly, many parents and caregivers are unable to celebrate these important milestones for the children in their world.

Research shows that a substantial proportion of parents admit to struggling to find money to pay for their children’s birthdays - with many forgoing essentials such as groceries or turning to debt to celebrate their children’s birthdays.

Birthday In A Box will empower parents and caregivers to create memories and establish positive family traditions.
