Community Involvement

Dear Friends!

A heartfelt thank you to everyone who donated to Pajamas For Arizona’s Kids.  We had a fantastic start, collecting over 3,300 pairs of PJs and 1,200 books from donors like you.

Our mission to provide a new pair of pajamas and a book to young children whose families are in crisis has been achieved through your generosity.

I recently had the opportunity to attend an event hosted by Native Health called Cookies with Santa, and I actually gave out the new PJs to the children.  I wish you could have seen their excitement.

Thank you all again for your generosity, and here’s to a very Happy and Healthy 2026.

It’s time to SORT

 ALL those pajamas and books!

Greetings Friends!

Save the date!  The next step in the process of getting pajamas to the children is to sort the donations by size and gender.  And that is where you come in!

We need your assistance with this project on Monday, December 8th, at the following location:
