Giving Back For My 25th Birthday

Hi everyone!

This year for my birthday, I'm raising funds for Save the Children, an organization that helps provides kids around the world with basic necessities like food, healthcare, education, and safety.

There is so much happening in the world right now that turning 25 doesn't feel like the biggest deal. But getting to this age is not something to take for granted, especially not when every child gets that same chance. So for my birthday this year, I wanted to try to make a small contribution in a meaningful way.

As a Catholic, we're called to love one another deeply, to show up for those who are vulnerable, and recognize Christ in them. Not every child gets the chance to grow up without worrying about their future or if food will be on the table tonight. But they deserve every ounce of care, comfort, and hope we can give to them and their families.

Turning 25 feels like such a gift, and I want to give something back in turn. If you felt like giving me something for my birthday (thank you, that's very generous!), I would truly love for you to consider donating instead. And if that’s not possible, even sharing this would mean a lot

So here's to 25 years -- and hopefully $2,500 (or maybe even $25,000… you got to shoot for the moon!)
