The organization Morgan's Sweet Sixteen was started as a heartfelt gesture for those effected in Haiti after the natural devastation.
The organization was started by Morgan Burnard, who started the site as she realized "...that I am so blessed, and in an instant, I could have nothing....I’d be in their shoes. I want to show them that they may not have material items, but they do have love from us, and more importantly, from God."
Morgan's Sweet Sixteen is run by Morgan, her mother Joy, and family friends Hailey and Leslie Golich. The organization is raising funds to host the birthday parties, or as Morgan says, "celebrations of life." In July, the organization will travel to Haiti to host 300 orphans' birthday parties.
