Help RI kids in need this season through Providence Journal Holiday Fund

The Providence Journal Holiday Fund is now accepting donations to help children and teenagers in need this holiday season.

The Holiday Fund strives to bring hope and make the season brighter for less fortunate children within our community. Donations to The Providence Journal Holiday Fund will provide basic essentials, including clothing, toiletries, baby supplies, underwear and books.

“We are thrilled to partner with our readers once again to help children whose families otherwise may have had very little to give this holiday season,” said Lynne Sullivan, executive editor of The Providence Journal. “Your donations to our Holiday Fund go directly to help the children in our community who need it most.”

Administered by the Rhode Island Foundation, the Holiday Fund provided gifts to thousands of children last year, thanks to the generosity of The Journal’s readers.

The Journal will provide in-kind print and online advertising space to promote the fund. Donors will be recognized weekly in the Thursday edition of the newspaper and online at providencejournal.com/giving.

A check or money order donation payable to The Providence Journal Holiday Fund can be mailed to the Rhode Island Foundation, One Union Station, Providence 02903. Online donations can be made at providencejournal.com/giving.
