9th Annual Holiday Toy Drive

Over the past eight years, we have raised nearly $45,000 through our Annual Holiday Toy Drive for underprivileged children in Jersey City. With the partnership of our good friends Gina Velliquette and Jason Velliquette, we have continued to make this event bigger and better. Each year our list of supporters grows to include more family, friends, and colleagues. Each year we’ve brought holiday cheer to more and more children.

Last year alone, we raised almost $11,000 and provided children in need with multiple gifts to make their holidays a little brighter.

The holidays are right around the corner, which means it’s time for our 9th Annual Holiday Toy Drive and our 7th year partnering with the Boys and Girls Clubs of Hudson County (BGCHC) to provide toys to hundreds of children in need. We are so excited to continue our work with the great folks at BGCHC again who make such a positive impact on our communities. In addition, this year we will also be partnering with Kismet of Kings (https://www.kismetofkings.org/) to expand our reach and impact.

This year we’re aiming to raise $11,000 and we’ll be leveraging GoFundMe to help us streamline and track the drive.

Donate

From the start, it’s been critically important to us that every dollar raised goes 100% to the children we’re raising money for. GoFundMe charges 2.9% + $0.30 per donation which we will personally cover (up to $1,000) to again ensure every dollar goes towards the cause. Regardless of where we end up, we will be making a huge impact in the lives of many children this holiday season.

The Boys and Girls Clubs of Hudson County will order all of the presents on their corporate account which means the purchases will be sales tax free.

We need your help to continue the growth so we can benefit more and more children each year. Whether by donating or helping to spread the word within your own networks, every bit helps to make an incredible impact this holiday season.

Thank You and Happy Holidays!
