Danvers, MA (prHWY.com) March 21, 2013 - Alex Anninos is a Realtor in the Greater Boston area. He helps people buy and sell homes probably just about every day. He loves his job and he loves helping people in the community where he works. When he learned about the organization, Birthday Wishes, he was truly touched. "The whole purpose of my career is to help people find the perfect home. Here is an organization that helps children without homes, somehow the connection made sense to me," says Alex Anninos.

Birthday Wishes was started in 2002 as a way to help homeless children build self esteem. For families living in a shelter, hosting a birthday party presents many challenges. For most shelter families the financial burden of purchasing presents and a cake is too much to undertake. Oftentimes children who are homeless do not get to enjoy celebrating a birthday. "Having a birthday party may seem like such a little thing but to these children it is a way for them to be like everyone else to just feel normal for a little while," says Alex Anninos.

Alex Anninos is passionate about supporting the charity. In 2013 he has pledged to raise $5,000 to donate to Birthday Wishes. A birthday party sponsored by Birthday Wishes has everything one would expect to see at any birthday party. Cake, presents, games, arts and crafts, and usually dancing and laughing are all provided by the Birthday Wishes volunteers. Birthday Wishes hosts birthday parties for children living in 175 shelters and transitional facilities in Massachusetts, Rhode Island, and Long Island, New York. Alex Anninos encourages others to consider volunteering or pledging financial support to the Birthday Wishes organization. "Everyone thinks about the homeless population during the holidays but this is something that can benefit children year round. It is a way to let these kids know that people really do care," says Alex Anninos.
