A Special Letter to Our Very Special Students

I am so happy I have the opportunity to write this letter to tell you how much your care and concern for the children of the Pajama Program means.

Your pajama collections are such a loving way for you to show your kindness to others who really need our help. The children we see are cold and afraid at nighttime, and when they go to bed, most of them are lonely and confused. They don't know what tomorrow will bring.

Your books and pajamas will give them some comfort and help them feel safe. They will know that you care and that you didn't forget about them. I'm sure that when you put on your pajamas at bedtime and read your book, or have your mom or dad read to you, you feel safe and loved. That's the feeling you will be giving the Pajama Program children, and there is no better feeling in the world!

We have a very long wait list of children who are hoping to receive new pajamas soon. Thanks to you, we can help so many of them!

Sweet dreams,

Genevieve Piturro
Founder, Pajama Program
