Based on last year's successful board game gift drive, we will again purchase and deliver games to children this holiday season. 

Our board game gift drive focuses on the idea of developing children's language skills, problem solving skills and executive functioning skills (planning, organization, self control, perseverance, working memory).  In addition, children will also learn about teamwork and sportsmanship as they play with friends and family.  

The goal of It Takes a 'Hood is to promote the learning of preschool literacy and math skills.  Through our holiday gift drive, we are able to provide families with toys that can promote necessary skills children will need to succeed academically, socially and emotionally in school.

Our gift giving drive is in its third year, and we have been able to provide hundreds of gifts through the selfless altruism of our donors.  We are thankful for their help.
