A Special Message from Hosts Dawn and Raymond Donaghy
Dear Friends and Family,
Thank you so much for supporting our 8th annual holiday toy drive for the children of Saint Dominic's Family Services (SDFS). Since 2014 your generous toy drive donations have helped to make the season bright for these children, and we look forward to bringing them that same cheer once again.
Though we wish we could come together for this occasion as we have in the past, our toy drive will be virtual again this year due to the uncertainty surrounding the pandemic. In 2020, over $14,000 in toys and donations were received. Because of the generosity of those who have donated to date, over $16K in monetary donations have been received and hundreds of toys have been purchased.
Remember, "For it is in giving that we receive" - Saint Francis of Assisi
Please enjoy the video below created as a thank you to past donors and to welcome new guests. Our warmest wishes to you and your families during this holiday season!
Warmest Regards,
Dawn and Ray Donaghy

Important Toy Drive Information
Although Dreamlist is closed for purchasing specific toys, you can still support the 2021 TOY DRIVE.
Please consider making a fully tax deductible monetary donation or purchasing raffle tickets for a chance to win NY Yankees Legends Tickets or a SONY PS5 Gaming Console. A $25 donation will go towards purchasing a gift card for child or adult who benefits from Saint Dominic's Family Services.
100% of all raffle and auction items proceeds go directly to Saint Dominic's Family Services.
Saint Dominic's Family Services (SDFS) is a nonprofit human services organization founded by the Dominican Sisters of Blauvelt in 1878. SDFS provides foster care and prevention for developmental disabilities, mental health, therapeutic education, and preschool services for over 3,000 children, adults and families in the Bronx, Rockland, and Orange Counties. Children's Care Coordination provides home-based services in the Bronx and Rockland County to prevent separation of families, increase family stability and reduce the stressors that the families face. Once all the 2021 toy drive needs have been met, any excess in monetary donations will assist these programs.
