This is the last week that I will be uplifting our toy drive to ask for online donations since we want gifts to arrive by 12/19.

Teen Gifts: amzn.to/4rDn7BG

Toys: bit.ly/48pJUrK

If you are in NYC, you can also drop off toys & gifts directly on 12/18 & 12/19. Thanks so much for the support.
A festive flyer for a toy drive features toy blocks, a wooden horse, and a toy truck. It lists gift drop-off dates, address, an online link, and a giveaway event, with "Holiday Season" and "Another World" in bright text.

We're about 75 toys & teen gifts to our goal for parents at Cook County Jail. Thank you! Info & ways to donate:

docs.google.com/document/d/1...
Over half of all people entering the Cook County Jail system are caregivers to children under 18, and over 60% of caregivers provide support to children under the age of 5 Incarceration of a parent is a recognized as a significant trauma, causing anxiety, depression, PTSD, academic struggles, physical health problems, poverty, and social stigma. The median annual income for people in prison, before conviction, was 41% less than non-incarcerated peers. The disparity is even greater for Black and women prisoners. Your donation is more than a toy or a gift for a teen. It’s a tangible connection kids take home as we work to reunite families.
