We believe that no child should be deprived the joy, excitement, fulfilment, mental and emotional development attached to his/her birthday party.
Make A Child’s birthday creates a memorable childhood experience for deprived children in developing countries where the painful sting of poverty prevails; children look forward to surviving each day while the joy of growing up is lost to the daily battle of survival.
We organise and provide healthy, traditional celebration menu and merry moments through a network of service providers and partners. Our celebration activities include cutting of cake, hot meals, educational party packs, music, dancing, painting, drawing and various games. The party is held at the residence of the service providers and organisational partners or the nearest available suitable place for easy accessibility.

We provide educational/employment support programme combined with financial literacy activities that will specifically target young people who are not in education, employment or training who are underachieving due to heavy financial/debt burden, lack of skills and lack of information and advice on available opportunities.
