Help to make a child’s wish come true this holiday season by adopting a wish from a preschool student from the New Brunswick community!
Winter Wishes helps to give over 300 New Brunswick pre-school children gifts their families may not be able to provide in celebration for the holiday season. A member of the Rutgers community “adopts” each child’s wish to create a personal holiday experience. The children will also be invited to a holiday event to remember with activities, games, and to receive their gifts.
HOW:
1. Register online October 31 – November 13 (Group and Individual):
