The Providence City Center of IIDA NE is pleased to work with YWCA Rhode Island for the 23rd Annual Gingerbread Express Charity Drive. YWCA is dedicated to eliminating racism, empowering women, and promoting peace, justice, freedom, and dignity for all. Gingerbread Express will provide gifts for students and children who may be facing a bleak holiday season. Each of these children have listed information about his/her clothing needs and wishes. This information will be distributed to our IIDA NE Community interested in helping with the requests.

IIDA NE Providence City Center has helped hundreds of children for the past 23 holiday seasons. Complete anonymity for the giver and the recipient is preserved. As a donor, simply purchase your gifts, wrap them, and bundle them securely together (a large gift bag works), attach the Gingerbread Cutout as the gift tag and bring them to our IIDA NE Providence Holiday Gala on Thursday, December 7th.

If for any reason you cannot attend and want to sponsor a child, please contact Debbie Petrarca via email at Debbie.Petrarca@mayerfabrics.com or via phone 401-639-0052.

We look forward to seeing you on December 7th at Res American Bistro. Your generosity is greatly appreciated and continues to make our Holiday Gala our most charitable event of the year!
