The Gifted Crate
I met Mary through a Women in Business group on Facebook, of all places, and was immediately impressed with her dedication to both her business and her nonprofit. She and her husband run an organization called The Gifted Crate. As their website says:
The Gifted Crate believes that birthday celebrations are a crucial developmental milestone for all children. Children placed in foster care have experienced some type of trauma or disruption to their home life and deserve to feel celebrated and loved on their special day. Additionally, foster parents often struggle to fund a special birthday celebration. This is where we come in!
The Gifted Crate provides a custom birthday-in-a-box to children and teens in foster care throughout Massachusetts. With the help of DCF, we identify these children along with their likes and interests. Our birthday crates include a boxed cake mix, frosting, candles, plates, napkins, and customized gifts based on that child's wishes.
How cool is that?
That’s why I am doing a fundraiser for her awesome program, and TriTutoring is offering a free tutoring session to the fundraiser’s largest donor (which can be gifted to a friend if you don’t need a session).
Together, we can bring more joy and celebration to the lives of children who, like your children, grandchildren, nieces, nephews, and friends, deserve something special for their special day! Please join me in donating to The Gifted Crate through the link below by the end of 2021. The winner of the free TriTutoring session will be announced in the new year!
