Project Impact 180 will enter its fourth annual year of blessing families from Chicago's underserved communities. For many of the families we serve, the joy of giving gifts is dampened by the reality of limited resources.

Join us and help make this holiday season a little brighter! When families register for our holiday giving campaign, they provide a wish list for their families, oftentimes, requesting many of their basic needs.

Through your generosity, we will host our Winter Wonderland Experience for youth and families that we serve through our afterschool and mentoring programs. The Winter Wonderland Experience includes: gifts for the entire family, a holiday meal, and activities that promote family bonding.

WAYS TO SUPPORT THE HOLIDAY GIVING CAMPAIGN:

Adopt a Family- Help us make the holidays bright for 50 families ( 250+ children, youth, and their families) in North Lawndale and surrounding communities. You can choose to adopt an entire family or purchase an item from a participant's wish list. The average gift is $50-$100 per family member.
