A little girl from Louisville, Kentucky, is using her birthday to make a big difference! Ellie, age two, donated her birthday “presents” to Blessings in a Backpack!

Ellie’s mom made the birthday party “food themed” and asked everyone who came to the party to bring a donation for Blessings in a Backpack. The food was donated to the Blessings program at Norton Elementary.
