Teens make ‘birthday bags’ for Friends of Karen

Ella Dallow, Isabella Halstead and Lili Valletta, eighth graders
at North Salem Middle School, spent their weekend collecting
cake mixes, icing, candles, birthday themed paper plates and nap-
kins to make “birthday bags” for sick children and their families
through Friends of Karen. After the collection, the girls assem-
bled the items for all the makings of a birthday party. Friends of
Karen sends the bags to families with a gift for the sick child and
each of the siblings.

On Saturday, the girls set up a table at Stop and Shop and col-
lected enough donations of money and items to be able to make
105 birthday bags, exceeding their goal.

Friends of Karen is an nonpro t organization based in North
Salem that supports critically-ill children and their families.

e girls were overwhelmed with the generosity of the commu-
nity and ended up staying longer then they planned because they
were receiving many donations.

To learn more about Friends of Karen, visit friendsofkaren.org.
