It is no secret that COVID-19 has caused enough chaos to make 2020 feel like a never-ending nightmare. However, even with new challenges, the Birthdays for All community has continued making dreams come true.
We achieved our goals this year due to our amazing support system that is continually growing and helping the hearts of so many across South Carolina. The Birthdays for All team started the year by expanding into covering all foster children in Berkeley County. While growing our community’s virtual platform, we also covered all of the birthdays submitted to us by DSS.
Our greatest challenge this year was keeping up momentum while ensuring the safety of our team by adhering to COVID-19 policies. While in-person events came to a pause, our ability to help others did not. By pivoting to online signups, our community can still donate, buy gifts, sponsor a month, and of course, spread the word!
Getting to see smiles on kids’ faces makes it all worth it. We will be updating event schedules as soon as possible on birthdaysforall.org, and cannot wait to see you back in-person. Until then, keep continuing to make this community strong and gracious, it truly is what you do best.
