Flo’s Birthday Blessings
“Honoring, celebrating, and advocating for children in underserved and under-resourced communities in South Florida since 2018”
Our Mission
After losing my parents unexpectedly four months apart, I became painfully aware that the holidays would never be the same without them, particularly my mom. Most of us take celebrating birthdays and holidays with our loved ones for granted. I realize now more than ever, that it is, indeed, a privilege for a child to be able to gather with friends and family in a safe & fun environment to eat, play, and be celebrated & showered with love, attention, and of course, presents! I decided to honor my mother’s life by bringing a touch of her magical birthday & holiday cheer to children and families who have shown exceptional resilience in the midst of various (and sometimes continual) hardships and/or trauma.
I partner with local churches and inner-city schools across South Florida to identify families who have faced obstacles, challenges, and/or hardships that have hindered their ability to provide their child(ren) with many basic necessities, more more or less, a birthday or Christmas celebration. These children are then honored in grandiose celebrations on their birthday or Christmas where they are gifted with everything they need, want, dream of, and more!
Due to the generosity and outpouring of support from the community I have been able to impact more lives than I ever imagined possible! I am humbled and grateful that God chose this purpose for me. I am honored to be a beacon of hope in the community and I am committed to allowing Him to use me to further spread love and joy into the lives of children who need it most.
Donations in any form are greatly appreciated; not only by me, but by the many children and families that are impacted by this program! It truly takes a village and every penny counts so we THANK YOU from the bottom of our heart in advance! “Together everyone achieves more!”
