When learning a bedtime routine, it is fun for children to have a book or two to read once they are done brushing their teeth. Many of our families are learning new routines together, and the learning process can be made easier with some new, necessary tools. We are asking for kits to be assembled that feature a children’s book or two, children’s pajamas, children’s or adult tooth paste, children and adult toothbrush and a cuddle toy or blanket. We ask that all items be new and unused. Your donation will families bond at bedtime!

Mission Statement
Strengthening Families by Promoting the Safety, Stability, and Well-being of Children.
Description
FamilyWise is a local nonprofit that helps our community’s most vulnerable children and families. Many of these families come to us with a history of poverty, domestic violence and homelessness. Your volunteering and financial support helps break this cycle of despair and gives them hope for a better future.
Our goal is to promote social change by strengthening families and the community through programs that:
- Educate parents on skills needed to lead stable lives and provide safe homes for their children.
- Empower families to achieve self-sufficiency and to advocate for themselves and their children.
- Enrich the lives of children, youth and families, enabling them to lead healthy, productive family lifestyles.
"Volunteering at FamilyWise opened my eyes to a whole new world where children and families from all walks of life are treated with dignity and respect. It made me feel good to know that I was helping contribute in a meaningful way to the greater good."
