the world. . ." Juliette was off and
going with the first Girl Scout
troop.

What is a Birthday in a Bag?
A Birthday in a Bag is a self-contained gift
bag with everything you need to have a
Birthday celebration.
Who needs a Birthday in a Bag?
Every person needs some recognition of
their birthday, but sometimes
circumstances prevent this from
happening. A Birthday in a Bag can make a
birthday more special.
What can you include in
a Birthday in a bag?
Fill the bags with cake mix,
candles, frosting, balloons,
a foil cake pan, Birthday
themed plates and
napkins, cake decorations,
and maybe a toy or gift.
Where do they go?
Deliver to a Girl Scout Office or a local Food
Bank, pantry or organizations serving youth
or seniors citizens. Birthday bags for senior
could include cards, books, magazines,
toiletries or other small gifts.
