HOLIDAY DRIVE FOR ORPHANED/ABANDONED CHILDREN RESIDING AT THE INCARNATION CENTER
Causes – Fundraiser
Date: Thursday, December 3, 2009
Time: 6:30pm – 11:30pm
Location: LE ROYALE LOCATED @ 21 7TH AVE SOUTH, New York, NY 10014 - (212) 463-0700
Theses kids have HIV/aids as well as other developmental effects. They live in an orphanage because no family members want them and people don’t want to adopt or foster a child with HIV/aids.
I got to meet the kids last year and i was moved to tears. Your donations made all the difference in making christmas a merry one for them.
I received an email from the director of the Incarnation Center and like many organizations, they have had lay offs, funding has been cut back and endowments and donations are at an all time low but they are trying to be positive and give the kids a Merry Christmas.
She was ecstatic to hear that i would help them again this year.
Come down to Le Royale on dec 3rd, bring your gifts and lets toast to you all being so Unselfish & Giving during the holidays.
Drinks specials and light fare will be available.
Pick from the gifts below...
I have posted the individual wish list of each child at the bottom.

Holiday Donations
The children at Incarnation Children’s Center need toys year round, but especially at the holidays. Toys donated by our community friends keep our program supplied and help make special celebrations possible. You and your group can help by abiding by the following guidelines.
* Please remember:
Yes, donations are needed year-round for all age groups.
Our patients range in age from one to twenty-one years old.
We are always in desperate need of gifts for adolescents!
* Visiting policies:
It is not our general policy to allow donors to deliver gifts directly to the children. This is meant to eliminate the number of people that come in and out of the facility, and the confusion that it creates for the children.
* New or used?:
Only new toys are needed to give to the children at the holidays.
No used toys, please! Save them for children who really need them.
* Please do not wrap gifts!
Safety regulations require even labeled gifts to be checked for appropriateness. Separate donations of wrapping paper, ribbons, tape and tags are most welcome!
* Favorite (and much needed!) program gifts:
Gift Cards, DVD’s (rated G – PG13), CD’s, Video game controllers, Video Games, Batteries (size AA, AAA, D), Clothes (all sizes), Art supplies, Stickers, Personal care supplies, School supplies, Legos, Board games, Puzzles, Storage containers, General gifts for teenagers, Wrapping paper, Party supplies, Gift certificates, Bed linens & shower curtains, Books, etc.
