In lib folder create a class

class Notification
  def self.send_greetings
    # give here your own logic to find users with birthday
    users = User.all
    users.each do |user|
      UsersMailer.weekly_mail(u.email).deliver
    end
  end
end

setup whenever gem

every :day, :at => '12:00am' do
  runner "Notification.send_greetings", :environment => 'development',   :output => 'log/cron.log' 
end
