Birthdays are balmy oases in the calendar’s desert; they remind us to celebrate the fact that we made another full trip around the sun. They’re an annual high-five from the universe for persisting. But for those in foster care, birthdays can be a poignant reminder of uncertainty and change. It’s in these moments that our support must shine the brightest, like a lighthouse steering our foster children through the choppy waves of life.
Here we crowdsource a cornucopia of crafted candle holders of human warmth, pouring out 70 supportive birthday messages for foster kids. Each one is more than just a string of words; it’s a whispered pledge of positivity, an aural embrace promising that even in the most solitary of moments, they are not alone.
