NBC Bundle Up New England
NBC and Cradles to Crayons are teaming up for the third year in a row to make sure every child has a coat to stay warm this winter. Now through January 31, 2023, our Bundle Up New England program encourages you to donate winter coats and help us meet children’s needs across Massachusetts. Participate by shopping our custom Amazon Wish List, donating new or gently-used winter coats, or hosting a winter coat drive with your community or workplace!

Sign-ups are open for the 16th Annual Bruins PJ Drive! From February 1 through March 15, Cradles to Crayons, the Boston Bruins, Massachusetts Board of Library Commissioners, and Wonderfund are coming together with groups in your community to collect new pajamas for local children living in low-income and homeless situations. Host a PJ Drive to help us reach our overall goal of collecting 10,000 pairs of brand-new pajamas. The top three collecting groups will win prizes to be set by the Boston Bruins!
