“With 75% of the families in the network suffering from unemployment, we are working every day to connect these families to tangible resources that support their essential needs,” said Raioni Madison Jones, Executive Director of 3D Girls, Incorporated.

The organization has hosted the drive for the last five years, but this year was different due to the pandemic.

“We know it has been a tough year and we want to ensure that families feel seen and supported during the holidays as well,” Madison said.
