About Charity Birthday
What is Charity Birthday?
A few years ago I decided to stop asking for gifts for my birthday and Christmas.
I never really knew what to ask for, and, in general, I just didn't really want more stuff...
So I started to ask people to donate to charities instead of getting me gifts. At first I asked people to donate to what ever charity they wanted, but then I decided to do a little research and find charities that really spoke to me with their missions.
Now my family has decided to forgo gifts at holidays and birthdays completely. We just all donate to each other's charities. We still give gifts occasionally, but the focus is on giving back.
With Charity Birthday we're hoping to make it that much easier to do this for birthdays, anniversaries, Christmas, Hanukkah, Mother's Day, Valentine's Day, Tuesday, etc. It also gives people a chance to talk about the charities and why they're important.
So donate your birthday today! It's a great way to celebrate your birthday, makes it easy and convenient for people to give you a meaningful gift, and provides your favorite charities with some great, valuable exposure.
