What they reported doing

  1. #1 primary $0
    Operation Santa: The Novellus Foundation wanted to make the Holiday season extra special in 2024 by partnering with The New York Care's campaign of Winter Wishes. This campaign sought to ensure that children from less fortunate backgrounds were able to get a gift from Santa even if their families could not afford it! We were able to answer over 70 letters and provided well over 100 gifts to these children. All participating children were elementary or middle school students across five different public schools in Queens, Brooklyn, and Manhattan.
  2. #2 $0
    Halloween Costume Drive: This was our first year doing such a campaign and due to its great success, it is something we will continue doing in the year's to come. Through monetary and physical donations, we were able to donate over 70 costumes to The Floating Hospital's Health Education Center in NYC! In NYC, roughly one out of every nine children are experiencing homelessness, that is a whopping 119,000 children everyday who do not know where they will sleep that night. For children living in poverty, this time of year can be just another reminder that they are going without. By providing something as simple as a Halloween costume, we were able to give these children an opportunity to forget their circumstances and enjoy the holiday like any other child.

  • Seasonal Joy Intervention
    methodology: seasonal_joy_intervention
    By partnering with holiday gift programs to deliver presents during the holiday season, we foster joy, emotional relief, and a sense of normalcy for children experiencing homelessness or poverty, because positive emotional experiences during critical times can mitigate the psychological impacts of adversity.
