Livia Basche Supported

Family-to-Family, Inc.

Why I chose to support Family-to-Family, Inc.

My godmother told me once "on my birthday, I like to bring other people joy," and that really stuck with me my whole life. So every year on my birthday, I try to bring others as much joy as possible. Helping people brings me so much joy and freedom, and I feel great when I know I have made a difference in people's lives. Family-To-Family is a charity we were already familiar with, and we were looking for a charity to donate to this year so we chose them. Helping people brings me so much joy and freedom, and I feel great when I know I have made a difference in people's lives.

Livia Basche's Gifts

I decided to give 100% of the money to charity.

Why I chose my gifts

I decided to give 100% of the money to charity because I had no want nor need for a birthday gift other than the ones my relatives sent me.
