Brighten a Birthday

 Breaking News! Olivia partners with Cradles to Crayons' Brighten a Birthday Program.

Meet Olivia Iafrate.
She's not your average 16 year old.
Well, she is typical in that she wanted an amazing Sweet 16. What’s a-typical is her desire to make a difference while dancing the night away. Olivia had seen every episode of My Super Sweet 16 on MTV. She wanted to be that girl, but she also had a different motivation. She didn’t want a car at the end of her Sweet 16 story. She wanted to give back to her community. Olivia's Sweeter 16 birthday bash raised $2,500, helping more than 250 children get ready for a new year of school.

You can make a difference too!

You can help Brighten a Birthday for a child living in poverty by becoming a Cradles to Crayons Birthday Star. Register today (all ages welcome) and host your own version of a Sweeter 16.

  • Invite partygoers to bring a special gift to donate. See our "Top 10 Most Needed Items" for suggestions.

  • Encourage friends and family to make a financial contribution in lieu of giving a gift.
