The Ultimate Birthday Gift: The Virtual Birthday Party

Phoenix, AZ, April 12, 2012 --(PR.com)-- Recently launched, The Virtual Birthday Party.com is the perfect solution to the need for a “virtual gathering place” for family and friends to celebrate a special person’s birthday. Anyone can sign up as a Host, and pay $19.99 to create a dedicated birthday website. The Host can choose from several birthday templates, leave a host message, upload photographs, and invite family and friends to visit the site. Guests to the birthday site are encouraged to leave special birthday messages at no cost to guests. During the party, the greetings are available for review. After the party the birthday messages may be printed or saved electronically as a keepsake.

Creators Pam Koester and Wendy Carson today announced the formal launching of their new party concept: The Virtual Birthday Party. “I got the idea for this new party approach while reading an AARP magazine,” Ms. Koester explains. “It reported a trend in ‘virtual memorial’ websites where guests gather and leave messages about how much the person meant to them. So I had an ‘aha-moment’ that I shared with my sister, Wendy: ‘We all need to hear these messages and memories now, while we’re alive!’” The two sisters beta-tested the concept for Pam’s husband on his 65th birthday, and are taking it public beginning today.

The Virtual Birthday Party dedicated website is an ideal gift that’s easy to give: low cost, no hassle, and user-friendly -- an instant electronic party plus a “greetings” keepsake for the recipient. And no costly venue or catering menu!

The Virtual Birthday Party friends and family pay nothing to leave their messages, making it easy and fast for everyone. And privacy is of utmost importance: The Virtual Birthday Party will never share your information with anyone.

The owners of The Virtual Birthday Party are community-minded people. They believe that if every corporate entity shared a portion of its profits with community based organizations, we would have stronger, more vibrant communities. The Virtual Birthday Party, Inc., therefore, pledges 7% of its profits to community-based non-profit organizations.
