Non-Profit Offers Free Birthday Parties for Foster Youth

Celebrate You Foundation offers free birthday parties for foster youth in Pierce County.

Each month, the non-profit hosts a monthly community party for foster youth and their families featuring a dessert bar, gift, birthday announcement and treat bag. To find a birthday bash near you and to RSVP, visit www.celebrateyoufoundation.com/birthday-bash.

For those who can’t make it to the party, the foundation provides a special celebratory treat that includes cake, cookies, cupcakes and cake pops donated by the non-profit Life Is What You Bake It,  as well as a special birthday announcement.

To be eligible:

  • Foster youth must be between 1 and 21 years old with an open case with DCYF.
  • Foster youth must currently live in a Washington State licensed foster home or be in relative placement approved by DCYF.
  • The family must have a current placement letter for each child receiving services.

To apply for a birthday bundle, caregivers must fill out a request form at least five business days before the foster youth’s birthday.
