A Birthday to Remember: CBS & KCAL Join the Celebration at OC Rescue Mission
At Project Giving Light, we believe every child deserves to feel celebrated—especially on their birthday.
That’s why we host quarterly birthday parties at the OC Rescue Mission in Tustin, creating joyful moments for children who may not otherwise have a chance to feel the spotlight. These gatherings are filled with cake, music, laughter, and love—all made possible through the incredible support of our volunteers and community partners.
This past month, our celebration received a special spotlight of its own when KCAL and CBS News joined us to capture the joy firsthand. The energy in the room was electric as the cameras rolled, capturing the kids’ smiles, their surprise as they opened gifts, and the warmth of everyone who made the event possible. We’re incredibly grateful to CBS for helping us share our mission with a wider audience—amplifying the message that every child matters.
