Megs Yunn on Celebrating Birthdays, Building Joy, and Speaking Dignity to Children
Show Notes

In this episode of the Heromakers Podcast, Laurie and Ann talk with Megan (Megs) Yunn, founder of the Pittsburgh-based organization Beverly's Birthdays, which provides birthday cheer and critical baby care items for children experiencing homelessness and families in need. Each year they make sure over 30,000 children who may not be celebrated on their birthday get the love and attention they deserve.

Megs talks about how Beverly's Birthdays got started, why joy is not a luxury, and how one positive memory can change a life forever. We talk about how laughter and joy are necessities and how all of us can bring hope and dignity to those around. us, particularly our young ones.
