Overview
Mission
During the year, Extra-ordinary Birthdays hosted personalized birthday celebrations for children living in shelters across the DMV region.

The organization also partnered with local businesses and volunteers to assemble birthday party kits and provide support for parents and caregivers. These efforts strengthen family connections and raise awareness about the needs of children experiencing homelessness.

The organization created and provided multiple birthday parties to homeless children in homeless shelters in the Washington, dc metropolitan area.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Donor-supported. 86% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.

The verdict
STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Expenses are high relative to revenue and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
