EVERY CHILD DESERVES A BIRTHDAY PARTY
Birthday Beacon is a nonprofit that provides birthday parties to deserving children throughout our communities. The most formative, lasting memories for young children are celebrations and we believe every child deserves the immediate joy and lasting benefit of a fun destination birthday party!
ESSENTIAL
ELEMENTS
WHO
Birthday Beacon throws parties for children in our communities, whom otherwise may not get to experience one.
We team up with remarkable Nominating Partner organizations throughout the community who are uniquely positioned to nominate deserving children.
HOW
A child is selected by one of our nominating partners and is asked to choose their party package. The nominating partner then submits a request through our online form and Birthday Beacon issues gift cards/certificates to cover the party expenses, instructions for ordering cupcakes and booking the party.
WHERE
Fun party destinations in Bismarck-Mandan include Tilt Studio, Midway Lanes, Sky Zone, Jumped Up, Bismarck Gymnastics Academy, Dakota Zoo, Bismarck Larks, BSC Aquatic Center, Capital Ice or VFW Sports Center, Four Seasons, and Hillside Pool.
We had our party yesterday and she had so much fun, and I appreciate what they did so much. It was the first actual party we have been able to throw for her and she had an amazing time
Real stories from real people.
One of our staff members was at Tilt his weekend and noticed a student having a birthday party. This is a super quiet student who doesn’t engage much at school. She had many friends at the party and our staff noticed everyone having a great time.
Real stories from real people.
We had an amazing family here at Pioneer that has been through a lot in the last year. We have two siblings here at Pioneer and have put in birthday referrals for both of our students, which has been a huge blessing. It has been so fun to hear about the parties afterward and the relief on mom that she was able to provide her children with a party.
Real stories from real people.
I am so excited for this family! The mom about cried when this was offered as an option. Thanks for all that you do.

I can spend 5 minutes looking at Price Signals to see if we are trending into an area to be making a sale or be patient and wait for better opportunities. This helps me be mentally prepared to make a sale and feel good about it. Price Signals reduce the need for me to spend a lot of time researching and gathering information on various commodities and cattle I market.
