Description:
Our community is about sending and receiving birthday goodies!
This is a community where random goodies (gifts, cards, etc.) are sent on an ongoing basis to members on their birthdays. It’s a lovely way to brighten another member's birthday and maybe make some new friends in the process. And who knows, your kindness just might be returned when your birthday comes around! First of all - you have to join the community. Again, anyone can join, regardless of your age or when your birthday is (however, your birthday has to be at least 4 months away from when you first join); or wherever in the world you live (as long as you have been a member of LiveJournal for at least 6 months and are currently active). Upon joining, you must add  bday_packages to your friends list so you keep up to date with new developments (there definitely will be updates and important mod posts during various times of the month).After you join a request will be sent to  fraserette. You will usually be accepted to the community within a week. You don't need to send more than one request, and please do not send email if you haven't been added instantly. Although you aren't required to send cards or gifts every single month (you choose what you want to send and when), participation is key. We encourage you to send as much as you can. Please do NOT join if you are unable to send cards or gifts.Also, please click on the links below to get yourself familiar with the community. Each link provides important information. And most of all, have fun! That's the whole idea behind bday_packages! |
