Holiday Effort

Kicking Off Our 28th Annual Holiday Effort

Welcome to the official Kick-Off of the 28th Annual Frank and Rosemary Iovieno Caring for Children Holiday Effort for 2024! We are looking to build upon another successful Holiday Effort last year, during which 800+ children were directly sponsored by numerous companies and individuals. We received a record-setting amount of donations to help the children and families in additional ways, not only during the holiday season but also throughout the entire year. Just a note: If you’d like to Sponsor A Child and be matched before Thanksgiving, kindly register by Friday, November 22nd. However, as always, the earlier, the better.

Kicking Off Our 27th Annual Holiday Effort

Welcome to our 27th Annual Frank and Rosemary Iovieno Caring for Children Holiday Effort for 2023! Last year's 26th Holiday Effort was a huge success for the Caring for Children organization as we helped over 800+ children. We have never eclipsed 800 children before, so this was a monumental and memorable effort that we take great pride in. We would like to once again send out a huge thanks to the participation and generosity of thousands of sponsors (corporate and individual sponsorship) for enabling Caring for Children to achieve such a milestone effort. The children we support have life-threatening and/or life-limiting illnesses (siblings included) and live throughout Massachusetts and upstate New York.
