Princeton Is Seeking Donations For The 24th Annual Gift Drive

PRINCETON, NJ — While many of us are already planning our holiday season, there are those who find themselves in challenging circumstances.

For the past 24 years, Princeton Human Services, municipal employees, local businesses, and private donors helped children’s holiday wishes come true by providing gifts. With inflation on a high and a challenging post-pandemic economy, many Princeton residents find themselves in greater need than ever.

You can help bring joy to local families by making a donation. Applications for interested donors are being accepted until Nov. 18.

Donors can purchase one or two gifts, not exceeding $75, for children up to age 12.

Donating a gift card to help the parents and families of the children is also welcome.
