Austin AFP is collecting birthday party supplies for foster children.  Please bring your donations to the May meeting.

The Center for Child Protection works to reduce trauma to child victims of abuse and neglect.  Some of these children lack even the simplest pleasures that all children deserve, such as the opportunity and resources to celebrate their birthday.  You can help by donating birthday party supplies that will be used to create Birthday Boxes for the kids.

Make it extra special for children who visit the Center by adding personality to the box!  Any birthday items with popular children’s movie characters, mermaids, cars, or even a general solid color birthday items are sure to put a smile on their face.

Supply suggestions:

Candles / Sprinkles / Party Plates / Tablecloths / Cups / Party Favors / Cups / Cake Mix / Cake Pan / Frosting /  Streamers / Napkins / Birthday Hats / Banners

The Center's mission is to reduce trauma for children during the investigation and prosecution of crimes against children.

Every day, the Center serves approximately 3-5 new children who have either been physically abused, sexually abused, or have witnessed a violent crime. They arrive at the Center, bravely tell their story to a professional, and begin their journey to justice and healing. Without the support of the Travis County community, this opportunity wouldn't be possible for these young victims.
