Our birthday celebrations epitomize the essence of our organization, spreading seeds of kindness while acknowledging shelter residents on their special day. In conjunction with our partners, Maria’s Birthday Wishes for the Homeless delivers cupcakes to homeless shelters across the nation each month to celebrate their residents’ birthdays. This embodies our mantra of delivering: smiles, hope, acknowledgement, and self-worth.
