Local Chapter Promise

Every child deserves to celebrate their birthday! In fact,
recognizing and celebrating a child’s birthday is a crucial component of a child’s overall emotional health and development.

 

 

The Cleveland Chapter of because I said I would hosted a birthday party for local homeless children who very well may not get to celebrate their special day. (Or perhaps never have.) 30 volunteers and almost 50 children and their parents/guardian attended the party.

 

 

Chapter Leadership Spotlight

Q&A with Denver Unified Promise Leader:
Nicole

 

 

What has been your favorite Unified Promise so far?

I would have to say serving the meal at Judi’s house in Denver. This is a nonprofit that helps children deal with their grief. Being able to make a meal from scratch with other members and then serve the kids and their family was really special. There is something about the power of serving a meal.

 

Fall is coming. Are you ready?

Stay warm this season and show your support for the social movement by wearing our comfortable and cozy Unisex Tri-Black Sweatshirt. Our zip up hoodie is easy to wear with a zippered front and drawstring hood, and looks great on both men and women. The hoodie features white lettered “because I said I would” text in the upper left hand that is printed on an American Apparel zip up tri-black sweatshirt. 
 

In addition to this sweatshirt’s great quality and fit it is manufactured in Los Angeles, California in a sweatshop free facility. By wearing this sweatshirt not only will you help spread the message of our movement but all proceeds help fund and support our nonprofit organization.
