The
Council for Children does not want a child to go without
a party and gift on their special day. Happy
Birthday Backpacks is an outgrowth of the
CIFK program because several parents asked
for help for birthday parties for their
children, We believe that since children
love going to birthday parties, we would
help make sure that all the children we
help would have an opportunity to have friends
and family around to clebrate withy them.
This birthday party in a backpack includes
cake mix, frosting candles, paper goods
and a small gift or gift cardildren does not want a child to go without
a party and gift on their special day. Many caring community individuals
and groups have continued to make these Birthday
packs available to agencies that serve our children.
