Stockings for Kids
History |
|
B101 has been giving back to the local community through Stockings for Kids since 1996. This program gives toys to thousands of children in the Delaware Valley who would otherwise go without. B101 has long believed in giving back to the local community, and what better way than to partner with The Salvation Army of Greater Philadelphia – an organization dedicated to meeting the human needs of men, women and children in the community throughout the year.
Launched as Kids for Kids, B101’s stocking stuffer program reached out to the schools and children of Philadelphia for help in making holiday dreams come true. That first year, B101 distributed empty stockings to schools throughout the greater Philadelphia area. Thousands of children, parents, and teachers helped to fill over 15,000 stockings, totaling $160,000 in donations.
In the past sixteen years, Stockings for Kids has become a beloved Philadelphia tradition, which has raised millions of dollars in toys and donations that were distributed by The Salvation Army. What began as a school-focused fundraiser has grown into a movement that includes thousands of individuals, schools, corporations and community groups working together every holiday season to help those who need it the most.
No child should know need, especially
during the holiday season. Please
join us in making the 2011 Stockings
for Kids program the best yet.
Our goal to help as many children and
families as possible. We need all the
help we can get! |
