Party dates, times and needs are updated on the first of the month for all parties that month.
Party Schedule
Birthday Wishes provides two types of parties. Our on-site parties take place at
the shelters and are supplied and run by Birthday Wishes volunteers. Our Birthday-in-a-Box program is for
our "safe" shelters, which do not allow outside volunteers to come in to the shelter. BIAB parties require
party supply donations and a volunteer to deliver the party supplies only.
Upcoming Parties
To sign up to volunteer at or donate to a party, click the link right next to the item you would like to donate.
Your information will passed on to a Birthday Wishes party coordinator, who will contact you with all details. Once your submission is confirmed, your first name will be posted next to the item you are volunteering for. You will be able to keep track of what you've signed up for, and others will be able to see what we still need for each party! Thanks so much!
