Holiday Dreams began as a way for us to give back to our local community. It started in partnership with JFS Metrowest, serving children at the Woodrow Wilson school. Our goals really started to expand after our children asked us a simple question: “We’re helping students at school, but what about their brothers and sisters?” We knew that if our kids had dreams to take Holiday Dreams further, we needed to make it happen. Our foundation quickly grew from a small holiday-focused program to year-long programming that brings comfort, security, and magic into homes all across Massachusetts and Hartford, Connecticut. What began with our own family unit has become a tradition of families pitching in together, with kids of all ages giving back and forming new perspectives. When we teach our kids to give back to their communities with teamwork, care, and generosity, we are creating leaders for tomorrow who will take this work even further. While all kids love having presents at the holidays, we have seen our children and the families we work with grow in compassion and empathy with each passing year. We look forward to seeing where Holiday Dreams goes next, and we hope you will be with us every step of the way! — Leslie and Jonathan Gerber Founders, Holiday Dreams Foundation https://holidaydreamsfoundation.com/holiday-dreams daily 1.0 2025-11-06 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f4e66e5a1367e052184a154/1605289431910-YPQDPCOZ1C5DLTKP1ZR9/IMG_3567.jpeg Holiday Dreams Foundation Community event outdoors with adults and children, people wearing masks, someone distributing supplies at a table, a grocery and deli store in the background. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f4e66e5a1367e052184a154/1605289433759-8DFACKNAAXYOS5GUIU1O/IMG_3560.jpeg Holiday Dreams Foundation A man and a boy outdoors with shoe boxes on a table and ground.
