PRESENT NOW

PRESENT NOW mobilizes resources that enable us to accomplish our mission - to deliver joy to children living in transitional domestic violence shelters. We rely on the help of our strategic partners, donors and volunteers who share our vision. Our Shelter Partners are at the center of our program model. These organizations house our Presents Program. Additionally, we rely on the help of over 200 volunteers who help package our gifts and digitize our supplies inventory. Since our present boxes are exclusively brand new gifts, PRESENT NOW partners with corporations and brands that make mission critical in kind donations of product. The primary strategies for ensuring more children will benefit from our program is to: 1. To continue to seek Shelter Partners 2. To continue to expand our volunteer reach 3. Increase the number of in kind donations from corporate supporters 4. To continue to expand our reach to corporations
