Committed to giving? Give back and celebrate you on your birthday!

We know how special and beautiful your birthday is. It is a memorable day marking a milestone in your life, and an opportunity for your family, friends and loved ones to celebrate you! Celebrations are always sweeter when shared, and now, you can make your birthday even more memorable by pledging your special day to one or more causes you care about. Newly launched on CanadaHelps, you can now pledge your birthday to charity! Pledge now, and when it comes time for your special day, create your own birthday fundraising page online. Whether you choose to give your friends and family the option of donating to a cause(s) of your choice, or if you only ask for people to donate to your selected cause(s) for your birthday this year instead of receiving presents, you will feel great giving either way.
