"Ten years ago, one New York woman noticed children in shelters and group homes sleeping in their clothes because they didn’t own even one pair of pajamas. She filled a shopping bag with new sleepwear and books and began to hand them out to the youngsters, many of whom were abused, abandoned or neglected. Her non-profit Pajama Program marks its first decade of service in 2011."
What an amazing program, giving children in need new pajamas and a new book. Kids who are lost need warmth and security, and what better to deliver those needs than with a new pair of pajamas (especially if you have never owned a pair) and a book to transport them from their current and sometimes dire situations.

What a great program. Thanks for posting the info.
