January 2024

Happy New Year! With 2023 behind us and an exciting year ahead, we welcome the new year with joy and hope for serving our community.

We express deep gratitude to our community for the overwhelming support in 2023, particularly through the Adopt-a-Family, Toy Table, and Holiday meal programs. The record number of families assisted this season and the generosity witnessed throughout the year are truly awe-inspiring.

To our donors who are contributing to The Children's Cabinet Market via our Amazon Wish List, thank you! We don't know who you are because the boxes arrive anonymously, but please know how grateful we are to have food and other essentials to give to families.

As we look forward to the year ahead, save the date for the 26th Annual Art of Childhood Gala on August 16, 2024 – an evening full of magic under the stars!

Finally, to the many individuals, businesses, organizations, and groups small and large that held toy drives, collected diapers, developed fundraisers, made donations, and raised awareness about The Children's Cabinet, we thank you. Our work would not be possible without your support.

Here's to a 2024 filled with abundance, good health, happiness, and peace.

With sincere appreciation,

Thank you! Because of the incredible generosity and outpouring of support, we served a record number of children and families through our holiday programs this season.

Our Adopt A Family program reached 363 families in Northern Nevada, giving 1,497 individuals a holiday they will always remember.

Our Toy Table spanned the state of Nevada reaching Las Vegas, Elko, and the Reno area supporting 466 families, totaling 1,769 individuals!

Additionally, 326 families received Thanksgiving meals, Christmas meals, and holiday food baskets. A big thank you to our partners with Reno Firefighters and Sam Saibini Christmas Food Basket Program, the Robert R. Banks Foundation, and Food Bank of Northern Nevada, for providing much-needed food for families to be able to enjoy a nice meal together.

A special thank you to all of our amazing volunteers who took on the role of Santa's helpers organizing thousands of toys and carefully selecting gifts to brighten the holidays for children and families.

We also want to give a heartfelt thank you to the Reno Tahoe Airport Authority and Atlantic Aviation for putting on another successful Operation Santa Claus for our clients. The children were beaming with excitement when Santa flew in on his C-130 and it was truly a magical day full of holiday joy!
