Organizations Filed Purposes:
THE MISSION OF PRESENT NOW IS TO PROVIDE CHILDREN IN DOMESTIC VIOLENCE SHELTERS WITH BOTH ESSENTIAL GOODS AND SPECIALTY ITEMS TO BRING THEM JOY, COMFORT, AND RELIEF DURING A TIME OF CRISIS. WE DO SO BY DELIVERING THREE HAND-CRAFTED PRESENTS PER YEAR TO EACH CHILD - ONE ON THEIR BIRTHDAY, ON VALENTINE'S DAY, AND ON BACK-TO-SCHOOL DAY. THESE GIFTS CONVEY TO THESE CHILDREN THAT THEY ARE APPRECIATED, CARED FOR, AND WORTHY OF LOVE. PRESENT NOW DELIVERS OUR GIFTS TO THE CHILDREN'S MOTHERS, SO THAT THEY CAN GIVE THEM TO THEIR OWN CHILDREN.
PRESENCE OF LOVE - A PRESENT WITH A BRAND NEW ELECTRONIC LEARNING DEVICE FOR CHILDREN LIVING IN DOMESTIC VIOLENCE SHELTERS. THE DEVICE ALWAYS PROMOTES A FLEXIBLE LEARNING ENVIRONMENT, SO THAT THESE CHILDREN CAN PURSUE THEIR EDUCATION NO MATTER WHERE THEY LIVE. PAST GIFTS HAVE INLCUDED TABLETS, IPODS, AND CAMERAS. THE GIFT IS DELIVERED ON VALENTINE'S DAY, BECAUSE THIS HOLIDAY CAN BE ESPECIALLY CHALLENGING FOR CHILDREN RECOVERING FROM DOMESTIC ABUSE. WE ARE PROUD TO ALLEVIATE THE STRESS OF THIS HOLIDAY BY SHOWING OUR SHELTER CHILDREN THAT THEY ARE WORTHY OF LOVE.
PRESENCE OF MIND - A GIFT THAT PROVIDES A FRESH START FOR BACK-TO-SCHOOL DAY FOR CHILDREN IN DOMESTIC VIOLENCE SHELTERS. EVERY AUGUST, WE SEND OUR SHELTERED STUDENTS A BRAND NEW BACKPACK FILLED WITH SCHOOL SUPPLIES THAT ARE TAILORED TO EACH CHILD'S AGE AND GRADE. THIS GIFT ASCERTAINS THAT OUR CHILDREN FEEL PREPARED AND CONFIDENT TO GO BACK TO SCHOOL AND PROVIDES THE NECESSARY TOOLS FOR THEM TO SUCCEED. WE ARE PROUD TO SUPPORT OUR SHELTER CHILDREN'S EDUCATIONS, FOR THEY HAVE THE RIGHT TO SUCCEED ACADEMICALLY JUST LIKE EVERY OTHER CHILD.
PRESENCE OF BEING - A PERSONALIZED BIRTHDAY GIFT FOR CHILDREN LIVING IN TRANSITIONAL DOMESTIC VIOLENCE SHELTERS. THE GIFT IS DESIGNED TO INCREASE THE CHILD'S CONFIDENCE, SELF-ESTEEM, AND WELL-BEING BY INCLUDING A BRAND NEW OUTFIT, A TOY, AND A BOOK. THE PRESENT IS DELIVERED TO THE CHILD BY HIS OR HER MOTHER, SO THE MOTHER CAN FURTHER REBUILD TRUST IN HER RELATIONSHIP WITH HER CHILD. THE GIFT ALSO HAS CAKE MIX, BIRTHDAY CANDLES, AND A RESTAURANT GIFT CARD SO THE MOTHER CAN CELEBRATE HER CHILD'S BIRTHDAY. MOST IF NOT ALL OF OUR MOTHERS COULD NOT AFFORD THESE GIFTS WITHOUT OUR SERVICES. WE ARE PROUD TO SHOW THESE SHELTER CHILDREN THAT THEY ARE WORTHY OF A SPECIAL BIRTHDAY.
