CANDY CANE LANE

MAKING THE HOLIDAYS SHINE FOR FAMILIES LIVING IN HOMELESS SHELTERS AND DOMESTIC VIOLENCE SAFE HOUSES

Candy Cane Lane is always festive and bright, thanks to our caring community of donors, volunteers, staff, and friends. Children delight in choosing toys. Parents select from a full array of new winter gear, clothing, and sleepwear for their children and themselves. It’s a warm and welcoming time for families struggling with necessities such as food, clothing, housing and healthcare.

Donations of toys and clothing are received with love, but the most significant gift to our families is the knowledge that someone cares.

Become a Candy Cane Lane volunteer, donor, or sponsor. To learn how you can participate in our most heartfelt event of the year, please get in touch with alipman@thefloatinghospital.org.

Send a gift directly to Candy Cane Lane! Light up our little patients’ faces with a toy or warm clothing by participating in our Holiday Drive. You can use our Amazon Wishlist to get inspired or send a gift with just a few clicks.
