The Official Birthday Blog is a project of the American Cancer Society, the official sponsor of birthdays.

Together with our millions of supporters, the American Cancer Society saves lives and creates more birthdays by helping people stay well, helping people get well, by finding cures, and by fighting back against cancer.

Because more birthdays mean less cancer, we believe they’re always cause for celebration. That’s why we created the Official Birthday Blog – to put all the information about birthdays in one place. Look around to learn about birthday parties happening around the country, to discover tips for creating your own celebrations, and to learn how you can help create a world with less cancer and more birthdays.

We also want to hear from you!

Submit your best birthday story to the blog, send the link to your friends and family, and watch for it in our main section, where we’ll feature the best stories we receive each Monday.
