The Story Behind The Valentine Project

Every great mission begins with a simple yet profound act of kindness. The Valentine Project's story is no different, rooted in the compassion of two teen siblings, Michaela and Gregory Margida. Fifteen years ago, while volunteering, Michaela and Gregory were struck by the hardship and isolation faced by children undergoing treatments for pediatric cancer and chronic illnesses. Deeply moved, they envisioned a way to bring joy and hope to these brave kids and their siblings—a Valentine's Day filled with love, care, and a sense of belonging.

In its first year, The Valentine Project delivered 88 Personalized Packages of Love to children across Ohio. These weren’t just any packages—they were carefully curated shoe boxes, brimming with treats, homemade gifts, and heartfelt notes, all meant to deliver smiles and hope. Confidentially shared names were quickly claimed by volunteers, and soon The Valentine House became a hub of love, transforming a simple idea into a powerful tradition.

What started as a local effort has grown into a nationwide nonprofit, touching the lives of over 1,000 children annually. Today, The Valentine Project extends beyond Valentine’s Day, with the Kindness Card Program spreading joy throughout the year.

Michaela and Gregory's passion for helping others has only deepened with time. Gregory, now an attorney with the Metropolitan Public Defender in Portland, Oregon, and Michaela, a Research and Improvement Specialist focused on sustainable global food innovation, continue to hold The Valentine Project close to their hearts.

They invite you to join this growing "family" of supporters, sponsors, and donors. Together, we can make the world a kinder place—one package, one card, and one child at a time. Michaela and Gregory can’t wait to welcome you to The Valentine Project Family, where every act of love leaves a lasting impact.

Let’s spread love, hope, and joy—because every child deserves to feel special.
