Birthday Miracle

Let’s turn my birthday into someone else’s miracle this year.

In 2020, I had to sit my kids down and tell them there wouldn’t be a Christmas. I had just caught Covid, Money was tight, and I didn’t even have the strength to pretend everything was okay. It broke my heart in ways I’ll never forget.

Ever since, when circumstances allow, I’ve chosen to rewrite that story into something beautiful.

Instead of gifts for my birthday in December, I ask my friends to donate any amount they can. Together, we turn that into something powerful: 100% of it goes to one single mom who deserves a little more magic, relief, and support this holiday season. Over the years, these donations have created priceless memories for children and deeply needed support for overwhelmed moms. It’s truly the best gift I could ever receive. HOW YOU CAN SUGGEST A SINGLE MOM:

Fill out the form when you donate below.

Can't donate? Send me an email at cindy@cindycanek.com telling me about her, her story, and anything that makes you think of her at this moment.

You can donate without suggesting someone, and you can suggest someone without donating.

Every single action matters.

On December 7 (my birthday), we’ll close it out and announce the mom who will receive the gift.

I’m counting on my community to help make someone’s Christmas a little brighter this year. 🤍
