Welcome!
We are a community gathering place and safe haven. Our goal is to enrich the lives of children, reduce isolation, and strengthen family connections by providing free services, including support, referrals, activities, and life skills workshops to families. Located in the heart of Kearny Township, we offer a variety of innovative programs in both English and Spanish.
Support Our Toy Drive
This year, our cherished toy coordinator had to step down from her volunteer role, and now we’re leaning on incredible supporters like you to ensure that every child in our community experiences the joy of the holidays. For the past seven years, this tradition has brought smiles to countless families, and we’d love for you to be a part of it.
You can join us by contributing to our toy fund or purchasing a gift from our wishlist. Together, we can continue spreading joy and making this season special for NJ families in need. Your dedication and support mean the world to us – thank you for keeping this tradition alive!
We’ve got something for every family. Check it out!
