Pajama Program


Delivering Sleepwear and Nurturing Books to Children in Need



Imagine being a child, and every night the bedtime routine is to just get in bed and fall asleep. Not to put on pajamas, not to read a bedtime story, but to just lift a blanket over the clothes they are wearing and sleep. Thousand of children, here in America, do not have pajamas or a comforting nighttime book. They are in shelters or group homes waiting for someone to adopt them. They are living in temporary housing after a natural disaster. Their parents are in jail. Or, they are homeless.

Now imagine the opportunity to fix that for them. Imagine the chance to give a child a new pair of pajamas and a good book, to make the end of a long hard day a little softer. For a child with little, a soft pair of jammies can simply mean that someone cared.
