Superheroes Believe in Miracles
Superheroes Believe in Miracles has a mission to empower children facing an illness, disability or limitation to realize the superhero he/she has inside.
We send out birthday packages to these kids to let them know how special they are.

We area 501c3 that serves kids and teens all across the US. We want these kids to know they are special and real life superheroes. Once on our list, they will receive a birthday package each year near their birthday until they are 19 or we are otherwise notified. We also do other special events throughout the year to make these kids feel special!!
My youngest was very sick as an infant and spent about 3 months in the hospital after he was born. It was a trying and emotional time. During that time, I remember seeing these kids that were seriously ill just being kids. They would be smiling and playing. I was always in awe of their attitude in the face of such illness. Once my son was home and healthy I never forget those real life superheroes and wanted to honor them. Thus, Superheroes Believe in Miracles was born!!
