Don’t Walk By
Walk the streets. Welcome your neighbor.
Each February, Don’t Walk By mobilizes hundreds of volunteers to walk Manhattan streets in search of fellow New Yorkers in need. Volunteers offer warm meals, essential resources, and most importantly—dignity and relationship.
Hosted in collaboration with The Rescue Alliance, this initiative is a powerful expression of what happens when compassion moves us off the sidelines and into the margins.
His Toy Store
Bringing joys to families in need
His Toy Store turns community spaces into places of joy and connection! Families facing financial challenges are invited to choose brand-new gifts for their children—presents they’re proud to give.
Every year, 50+ pop-up toy stores will open across all five boroughs, welcoming 17,000+ children who might otherwise go without. Together, we remind families that they are not alone and help them experience the wonder of Christmas with dignity and delight.
