Every Child Deserves a Special Day. Help us deliver birthday joy to children in need across Rochester, Rome & Buffalo, NY School Districts. Birthdays should be a chance for each child to feel especially loved and celebrated. But unfortunately, many children don't experience anything special on their day. That's where we step in.
Working with the Rochester, Rome & Buffalo NY City School Districts, we adopt classrooms where 90% of the students are living at or below poverty.
Our goal is that each child in the classroom feels noticed and cared about on their birthday. So, on their special day, we bring a burst of joy by providing both wants and needs.
Elementary school kiddos receive two wrapped toys and a Cha Cha Cha bag full of goodies: Birthday Cake Oreos, a book, new socks and underwear, toothbrush, toothpaste, and soap, as well as a few grocery items (cereal, Mac n' Cheese, fruit cups, applesauce, Spaghettio's).
High School kiddos receive Birthday Cake Oreos, toothbrush & toothpaste, shampoo, soap, laundry detergent, feminine pads(girls), razors (boys) and a few special treats including a small denomination gift card.
We also believe in the idea of kids helping kids, and of teaching them about giving back. That's why we invite kids and teens to volunteer with us!
Join PJ Library as we join HBCCC, we need you young and old, to help in wrapping gifts and putting bags together.
We will meet on November 16th at 11 am at the home of the HBCCC founder. This non-profit runs from her home's basement.
Happy Birthday Cha Cha Cha
