Spreading Holiday Warmth to the Migrant Worker Community!
Join Us for the 7th Annual ItsRainingRaincoats Christmas Drive! This holiday season, we invite the community from all backgrounds to donate wrapped Christmas presents for migrant workers, expressing our heartfelt appreciation for their dedication and efforts in fostering a resilient community.
Each year, a diverse community of businesses, schools, community centers, condos, families, and individuals come together to gather, wrap, and personally distribute gifts to migrant workers. Volunteers add to the joy with celebrations at worksites and dorms, bringing food, drinks, and the spirit of Christmas directly to the workers. This year, we aim to make a bigger impact. So join us in this meaningful activity at our new inspIRRe store!
There are many ways in which you can get involved this year:
1. Drop off Wrapped Presents
You can drop off wrapped presents at any of our designated drop-off points. These will then be collated before sending to migrant workers at their worksites and dormitories.
Here’s our wishlist of BRAND NEW items: towels, power banks, Bluetooth headphones, portable mini fans, Tiger Balm (or similar), toiletries (body wash, shampoo), umbrellas, raincoats, backpacks, 1.5L water bottles, kettles, hot plates, caps, sunglasses, socks, dried fruit and nuts, 3-in-1 coffee, energy bars, chocolates, and biscuits.

2. Donate Wrapping Paper for Our Wrap Parties
We welcome you to bring gift wrapping materials such as wrapping paper, ribbons, dried flowers, or any other wrapping items.
Please also consider using sustainable options, like magazines or newspapers, so we can do our part in going green with our efforts.
