VOLUNTEER WITH US

Volunteers are the powerhouse of our organization. New York needs us and we need you! Please come help us sort donated children’s items at our warehouse in the Brooklyn Navy Yard or volunteer professional services such as fundraising, copywriting, graphic design, social media management, and more.

DONATE NEW OR GENTLY USED ITEMS

Donate your new or gently used children’s supplies at our warehouse in the Brooklyn Navy Yard so we can provide them to NYC children in urgent need of them.

Come celebrate with us and make an impact! Attend our annual Heart of Little Essentials event and other community events to celebrate the impact that together we are making in the lives of NYC children.

Tickets to the 2024 Heart of Little Essentials event this Spring will be available soon. Sign up for our mailing list (at the footer of this page) and follow us on our social channels to keep current on upcoming events.

HELP US FUNDRAISE

Want to help us fundraise? Help support the families we serve by raising funds to support our programs. Please contact Chloe Muller at courtney@littlessentials.org. 

SHOP OUR WISH LISTS

We are always in need of diapers, wipes, and infant hygiene items, as well as safe sleep and stroller gear. Shop our wish lists for items our families are most urgently in need of. 

HOST A DIAPER DRIVE

1 in 2 families in the U.S. struggle with purchasing enough diapers to keep their babies clean, dry and healthy. Babies without clean diapers are exposed to more health risks and are less likely to be accepted to daycares, leaving parents unable to go to work.

Hosting a diaper drive is very impactful and it’s a great community service project for your school, business, civic group, neighborhood or faith organization. 

BECOME A SPONSOR

We rely on the support of both individual and corporate donors. Through in-kind and monetary donations, event sponsorships, and funding special programs, you or your company can make a significant impact on the lives of the children we serve. Please email Courtney@littleessentials.org to learn more.
