Turn your social media savvy into birthday magic!

Do you love Instagram, Snapchat, and Twitter-and want to use your skills to make a difference in your community?

Extra-Ordinary Birthdays, a nonprofit based in College Park, MD, is looking for two enthusiastic and responsible Live Event Social Media Volunteers to help capture the joy of our personalized birthday celebrations for children experiencing homelessness throughout the DMV.

What You’ll Do:

  • Attend EOB birthday parties and events in the DC Metro area
  • Post live content on Snapchat, Instagram Stories, and Twitter/X
  • Capture the magic and mission of each celebration through engaging, respectful, and joyful storytelling
  • Occasionally contribute photos or short videos for monthly digital communications

You’re a great fit if you:

  • Are 18+ and live in the DC Metro area
  • Are highly skilled with Instagram, Snapchat, and Twitter (or X)
  • Can interact with families experiencing homelessness with empathy, discretion, and professionalism
  • Have experience (or interest) in public relations, nonprofit storytelling, or community outreach
  • Can pass a background check and commit to periodic weekend events

This is an incredible way to use your voice and creativity to shine a light on the power of belonging and celebration for children who need it most.

Mission Statement

Creating and providing birthday parties for homeless children

Description

A child's birthday party is often and understandably the last on the list of priorities, and more often, completely unattainable for homeless families trying to find a way to get on track. Extra-Ordinary Birthdays strives to give that special day back to families living in shelters who otherwise would not have the means to celebrate their child's birthday. Through the celebration of each child’s birthday, we become part of a wonderful opportunity to create a moment that will become a positive part of their lifetime of memories.
