1. Birthday Buddies
Due to the impact of COVID- 19, we find it more important than ever to celebrate our Little Buddies on their big day! A few days before each child's birthday we will be delivering a "party in a box" to each family that signs up. These boxes will include; cake making supplies, goodie bags for siblings, and handpicked gifts for the birthday child. To make this happen we will need donations of; cake mix, sprinkles, frosting, candles, plates, napkins, balloons, a helium tank, gift bags, small goodie bag prizes, and goodie bags, tissue paper, birthday gifts, and party games.
Please note that we will also accept gently used party supplies as well!
Items can be dropped off at the Big Buddy/ Cape Fear Volunteer Center Office, 5041 New Centre Dr. Suite 215, or e-mail bigbuddyoperations2@gmail.com for alternate drop- off arrangements.
