WINTER WISHES PROGRAM
This holiday season, thousands of families in our city will not be able to afford holiday gifts for their children or themselves. But you can help.

New York Cares' Winter Wishes for Kids and Families program helps fulfill the holiday wishes of more than 31,000 disadvantaged New Yorkers. Through our program, children, teens, and families write letters to New York Cares requesting a gift that will make the holidays brighter. You can take one or more of these letters and buy the gift(s) requested. The item you buy may be the only gift that person receives this holiday season.
