About Us
We envision a world where every person regardless of their past or present circumstance feels seen, valued, loved, and celebrated.
Our foundation exists to restore dignity and joy by honoring survivors and individuals who have often been overlooked, including those experiencing homelessness, children in foster care, orphans, survivors of domestic violence and human trafficking, and children who have endured unimaginable tragedies.
We believe no one is too forgotten, too broken, or too unseen to be celebrated.
Through joy-filled experiences such as birthday celebrations, baby showers, bridal showers, and weddings, we create meaningful moments for individuals who have never had the opportunity to be honored or affirmed. Each celebration is a reminder that their life matters, their story matters, and they are deeply worthy of love.

OUR VISION
Real People. Real Impact.
Our vision is to build a community where no one feels forgotten and every life is honored.
We strive to bring hope and joy through celebrations for those who have faced hardship, including:
- Individuals experiencing homelessness
- Foster children and orphans
- Survivors of domestic violence
- Women and girls rescued from human trafficking
- Children who have experienced trauma or tragedy
- Individuals who have never had the opportunity to celebrate their birthday
In addition to birthday celebrations, we also seek to support women and families by hosting meaningful life events such as:
- Baby showers for mothers in need
- Bridal showers
- Weddings for couples who otherwise could not afford one
- Through these moments of joy and recognition, our vision is to restore dignity, strengthen community, and remind every person that their life matters.
At Chosen to Love & Celebrate, we exist to make people—especially children and survivors—feel seen, loved, and deeply valued. Through joy-filled birthdays and heartfelt celebrations, we remind every child and every person that they are chosen, cherished, and worthy of love.
