During 9/11 recovery, World Cares Center hosted holiday activities that brought together responders, survivors, volunteers, and their families to celebrate the spirit of giving. The tradition continued in Haiti, and through our Volunteer Reception Centers in Brooklyn, Queens and Staten Island, serving those impacted by Superstorm Sandy.
World Cares Center continues this work every holiday season, with our Far Rockaway partners including the National Grid, St. John’s Episcopal hospital, and Ready Rockaway, where we deliver toys, and household hazard awareness training to families. In addition, we continue to bring toys for children, along with solar puff lights and water filters to communities that have been impacted by disaster.
