The holiday season is upon us, and at Mallory Square, we’re excited to kick things off with a heartfelt tradition! This year, we’re thrilled to join Morguard’s North Pole Express, a four-week donation drive focused on bringing comfort and joy to children in foster care. We’ve partnered with Comfort Cases, an incredible nonprofit that supports kids in the foster system. We’d love for our Mallory Square community to join us in making this season truly special!
What Is the North Pole Express? π
This is more than your typical holiday drive—it’s all about collecting essentials that can bring real comfort to children in need. The North Pole Express is Morguard’s annual nationwide initiative where communities like Mallory Square come together to make a difference. Over the next four weeks, we’re transforming our lobby into a festive drop-off spot ready for your thoughtful donations.
Who Are We Supporting? π
We’re proud to partner with Comfort Cases, a nonprofit founded by Rob Scheer, who knows firsthand the challenges of growing up in foster care. Rob started Comfort Cases to change the unfortunate reality that many children enter foster care with their belongings in trash bags. Comfort Cases provides these children with backpacks filled with essentials like new pajamas, books, blankets, and hygiene products.
These comfort cases aren’t just backpacks—they’re filled with dignity, hope, and love. Each item is carefully chosen to let children know they are seen, valued, and cared for during difficult times.
How Can You Get Involved? π
We’re inviting our amazing Mallory Square residents to help us bring joy to kids in need this holiday season! From now until December 13th, we’re collecting the following items in our lobby:
- New pajamas (all sizes)
- Diaper wipes (packs of 10-48)
- Children’s books (to inspire bedtime stories)
- Small blankets & stuffed animals (for comfort and snuggles)
- Baby washcloths (to help keep little ones clean)
Please remember that all items must be new and unused, and they should not be religious or holiday-themed to ensure they’re suitable for all children.
Have Questions? π
The Mallory Square team is here to help! If you have questions about what to donate or how the drive works, feel free to stop by the leasing office or give us a call. We’re always happy to guide you on how to make the most of this opportunity to give back.
Why Participate? π€
The holiday season is all about coming together, giving back, and spreading joy. By supporting the North Pole Express, you’re doing more than just donating items—you’re helping foster children feel loved and appreciated during a time when they need it most. Let’s show them they’re not alone this holiday season.
Let’s come together as a community and fill those comfort cases with love, Mallory Square family! πβ¨
Thank you for your kindness and generosity. Together, we can make a real impact! ππ
