Our History

In a desire to help local children in need, Nonie Fairchild created The Birthday Program in 2017.   She started the organization using her personal resources and home address.  Little did she know that her idea would turn into a community effort.  For four years Nonie served as the Program Director, leading a crew of volunteers in reaching the needs of birthday children all throughout the Houston area.  Nonie led the organization as a volunteer herself.

In July 2020, Nonie announced her retirement as Program Director as she would be moving to Iowa to be closer to family.  

The Birthday Joy Program is currently run by a Board of Directors
