Best Day Box by Foam Homies

A Community Collabortation For Your Celebration

What is a
Best Day box?

At Foam Homies, we believe every child deserves to feel special on their birthday. That’s why we created the Best Day Box program—a community-driven initiative designed to bring joy and celebration to families in need.

Each Best Day Box is thoughtfully packed with everything needed for a memorable birthday celebration: cake mix, icing, candles, balloons, a banner, and even simple instructions to make it all come together. These boxes are delivered to families who might not otherwise have the means to celebrate, ensuring every child gets their special day.

Thanks to our generous donors and supporters, we’ve been able to deliver over 500 Best Day Boxes and counting to families throughout Vigo County and beyond. Each one represents a moment of joy for a child who deserves to feel celebrated, no matter their circumstances.

By booking a Foam Homies party or contributing to the program, you’re helping us make birthdays brighter for families right here in our community. Together, we can make every child’s day their best day.

The story behind Best Day Box

The idea for Best Day Box came to me during a moment that really stuck with me. I was participating in Camp Navigate’s Community Challenge at Benjamin Franklin Elementary, helping raise funds for their after-school program that serves kids in the Ryves Hall neighborhood. During this event, I learned that 99% of families in the Ryves area rely on free and reduced lunches, and that Ryves Hall provides dinner and homework help to over 600 children every year. Hearing those numbers hit me hard.
 

As I thought about the challenges these families face daily, one question kept running through my mind: if putting food on the table is this difficult, how do families even begin to think about celebrating birthdays? That thought struck a personal chord with me. Growing up, birthdays weren’t a big deal in my home because of financial struggles. We didn’t have parties or gifts—maybe a cake if it happened to be payday. That experience shaped me and gave me a deep understanding of what it feels like to miss out on those special moments.
 

With Foam Homies, birthdays are always on my mind, and I knew I wanted to do something to make sure every child has the chance to feel celebrated. That’s how Best Day Box came to life. Each box is filled with love and care—everything needed to create a little birthday magic: a cake, candles, balloons, and decorations. It’s about making sure kids who might not otherwise have the opportunity get to feel the joy and recognition they deserve.

Best Day Box comes from a place of personal experience and a passion for giving back.

It’s a simple reminder that every child deserves to feel special, celebrated, and loved, no matter their circumstances. 💙
