North Fork Families Needed for Holiday Toy Drive
KiDS NEED MoRE Holiday Cheer Bus Looking for North Fork Families Coping With Cancer to Gift

Kids Need More, Long Island’s premier 501(c)3 nonprofit organization dedicated to enhancing the lives of children, families, and young adults coping with cancer and life threatening illnesses, is looking for families living on the North Fork and coping with cancer to include in their 4th Annual HoLiDAY CHEER BUS Elf Ride taking place Sunday, December 23rd.
For the fourth year in a row, KiDS NEED MoRE’s HoLiDAY CHEER BUS ELF RiDE’s buses stocked with toy-delivering elves will drive directly to homes all over Long Island to make wishes come true for over 250 children coping with cancer and serious illness, and this year would love to extend their reach to Long Island's North Fork.
“We started this event knowing that all parents feel the pressure to make the season magical for their children, but when families are stressed with medical visits, painful treatments, and financial burdens, taking part in holiday festivities can be overwhelming, notes Melissa Firmes, President, KiDS NEED MoRE. “We wanted to make the experience not only wonderful for the children, but also as a gift to the entire family, and a way for everyone to enjoy the holiday together.”
