Play It Forward!

KinHaven House recently hosted our Play It Forward Toy Exchange at the beloved Sugar Hill Creamery, and it was a resounding success!

Over 20 families came together to donate, swap toys, share joy, and give back to the community, all while reducing waste and saving money during the holiday season.

The event was not only a fun opportunity for families to refresh their toy collections, but it also had a meaningful impact. Unclaimed toys were donated to a local shelter and unclaimed books were donated to Total Equity Now 13th annual Literacy Across Harlem Holiday Book Drive, spreading holiday cheer to children in need.

By giving gently loved toys a second life, we collectively reduced plastic waste, proving that sustainability and generosity go hand in hand.

A huge thank you to the families who participated and to Sugar Hill Creamery for being the perfect host.

It was heartwarming to see the community coming together with donations coming in and people making new connections the day of the exchange.

Stay tuned for more KinHaven events where we continue to connect families, nurture our community, and create lasting memories—all while making a positive impact!
