About this Opportunity
Birthdays are a big part of what home means at the YMCA Supportive Housing Campus. Every residents receives a birthday card signed by staff on their birthday but we are thinking bigger and we need your help! We dream of having a Birthday Bash each month that includes cake and other fun birthday activities for members of our community. Many of our residents are faced with financial barriers that prevent them from enjoying cake on their birthday; or, they dont have family to celebrate with, so we are excited to show them how much our community cares through this event. To host a Birthday Bash, you would need to sponsor the funds/make 140 pieces of cake (or cupcakes) as we want to ensure all residents are invited. If you prefer, we can purchase the cake for you for a $50 dollar contribution. You can also bring in fun party supplies (table clothes, themed paper plates, streamers, etc.) to decorate and really make it feel like a birthday party. Upon arrival, you and your group of 5 or less will be able to decorate, serve, and get to know some amazing folks that call the YSHC home.Please Contact [email protected] you have any questions!
Birthday bashes can take place Monday, Wednesday or Thursday between 1 p.m. and 8 p.m.
