Cakes4Kids is a new program created and led by the Youth Ministry of C.C. El Buen Pastor (EBP McAllen). We have partnered with Arrow Child & Family Ministries and each month; we will get a cake and create a birthday celebration for children under their care whose birthday falls on that month. Please contact us if you would like to donate or sponsor a child.
Our program accepts cash, children’s toys and clothes, gift cards, cakes, and party supplies. However, monetary donations are preferred because we want each birthday celebration to be unique to the child’s likes.
We currently work with Arrow Child and Family Ministries (McAllen). In the future, we hope to receive more donations to expand. We hope to support other foster care agencies in the Rio Grande Valley (Hidalgo, Starr, Willacy, and Cameron Counties).
Absolutely! The number of children celebrated per month varies. When we celebrate a child, we ask them for a gift wish list and things they like so we can personalize their birthday celebration as best as possible.
