IN 2025, BUNDLES OF JOY CONTINUED ITS MISSION OF SERVING MOTHERS AND CHILDREN THROUGH OUR CUSTOM BUNDLE PROGRAM AND LARGE-SCALE DISTRIBUTIONS VIA CONNECTIONS WITH OUR PARTNER ORGANIZATIONS. IN FY 2025, OUR GOAL IS TO INCREASE OUR REACH AND GIVE AWAY MORE ESSENTIALS. WE SPENT A GRANT FROM THE JUNIOR LEAGUE OF BRONXVILLE THAT SUPPORTED OUR MISSION OF PROVIDING CAR SEATS AND STROLLERS TO NEW MOTHERS AT A LOCAL HOSPITAL. OUR LOCAL COUNTY SUPPORT HAS BEEN REDUCED TO 10,000 VERSUS 20,000 - 30,000 IN PAST YEARS. WE WILL CONTINUE TO SEEK OTHER GRANTS AND AVENUES OF FINANCIAL SUPPORT.
