DIY Piñata

Piñatas are always fun especially for a birthday party! Make a DIY piñata for us to include in a birthday box. Or mini piñatas to be used as party favors. 

​

When you are finished contact your local chapter leader to donate them. 

Get Creative

Make a "Happy Birthday" banner, or some other type of birthday decor to include in a birthday box.  You can use your own ideas or get some ideas/printable options from us.  

If you live by a Box of Balloons chapter, you can drop it off at the nearest dropbox.  Or ship it to the chapter of your choice!
