Since 2020 we have given over 150,000 wrapped Christmas presents to children living in underserved communities in New York City. This year we will be wrapping over 15,000 toys that will be delivered in different areas of the city. This is our annual event to wrap Christmas presents.
Volunteers will help wrap presents, cut paper, restock the tables with toys, pack wrapped toys in boxes, and stack the boxes in their respective areas.
We recommend to come in comfortable clothes to be able to move properly.

Description
To see leaders, teachers and pastors raised up out of the streets of the cities worldwide, so they in turn will minister to the next generation.
Metro World Child is committed to providing hope and building futures for children living in adverse conditions in metropolitan areas around the world. Whether faced with the physical effects of poverty or the dangers of gangs, violence, abuse and hopelessness, we want to see children’s lives placed on a new path through the life-changing love of Christ. By meeting children where they are, personally investing in their lives and presenting the Gospel in a fun, accessible way, we believe we can build foundations that lead to hope, a future and better lives for children around the world.
We accomplish this in several ways:- Helping children encounter the hope and love of Christ through weekly Sunday School programs in the neighborhoods where they live, summer camps and personal mentorship.
- Investing personally in the lives of the children we serve through consistent one-on-one relationships, weekly home visits and child sponsorship.
- Meeting physical needs that hinder personal and spiritual growth, such as school supplies, coats, food and clean water.
