Who is The Birthday Party Project?
Meet our partner, The Birthday Party Project. Their mission: acknowledge the life, dreams, and birthday wishes of children who wouldn’t otherwise be able to celebrate. This organization has helped more than 65,000 kids across 18 cities in the United States celebrate their birthdays.
Learn more about their founder, Paige Chenault, and how Paige believes crafting and the Cricut community can play role in their organization.
