Celebrating young minds, one balloon at a time.
Balloon Boost is a community recognition initiative by Things and Stuff Custom, created to support and celebrate academic growth in our local schools—starting right here in Doraville.
Our Mission
To recognize and encourage students who are putting in the work—whether they’re top of the class or steadily climbing. A little recognition can go a long way in helping students feel seen, supported, and proud of themselves.
📚 How It Works
Each month, the school selects one student per grade to be recognized as a Rising Star.
Students can be chosen based on highest grade, academic effort, or meaningful improvement.
We deliver the customized balloons to the school as part of our ongoing commitment to community and education.
School colors are used to promote school pride
Why It Matters
We believe in celebrating growth just as much as achievement.
For many students, being recognized can spark a lasting sense of confidence and motivation.
Balloon Boost is our way of giving back to the community and helping students reach new heights—one balloon at a time.
Bonus: If you look closely at the logo, the “b” turns into an “a”—a little visual nod to the kind of academic growth we love to see.
