Hello, my name is Kristen!  I live in Sun Prairie with my husband and three girls, Avery, Olivia, and Ellie.  When I'm not spending my time decorating birthday boxes with my kids, I enjoy gardening, hiking, family bike rides, skiing, and traveling.  

 

Box of Balloons is a mission that is close to my heart; I believe that every child deserves a day to feel celebrated, just for being their amazing self.  I love that volunteering with Box of Balloons allows me to help families in this community celebrate their child on their special day and that I can have my young kids be involved in this act of kindness.  

 

My favorite way to celebrate birthdays in my own family is by decorating the bedroom door overnight.  The joy on their faces in the morning makes everything feel lighter.  I hope to continue to spread more smiles and joy to local families through birthday boxes.

Hello, my name is Kelly! I live in Sun Prairie with my husband and two sons, Desmond and Tate. During the week, I am a marketing professional in the energy industry, supporting local not-for-profit utilities. The weekends are usually spent chasing after my littles, spending time with family and friends, and
finding a few moments to consume a book, podcast, or the latest binge-worthy show. I’m a planner, who rarely likes surprises, but am always up for trying something new.

I’ve always loved celebrating birthdays – just ask anyone who knows me! – so I was naturally attracted to Box of Balloons and its mission to provide joy and happiness for children on their special day. In understanding birthday celebrations may not be possible for every family, I am eager to support my local community, partner with inspiring volunteers, raise awareness of Box of Balloons’ mission, and most importantly, provide children with a chance to celebrate their birthdays in Sun Prairie and beyond.
