We did it! In partnership with Erace The Hate, our second annual Toy Drive was a success! It was truly a magical day at Nomi Village. We are so grateful to have been apart of the smiles, the singing, the praising, the families and friends enjoying all of the activities, the toy giveaway, and so much more. The health of our community is at the core of what we do, so we made sure we were able to provide as many resources to as many people as we could. “Everyday Praise,” a soulful gathering, became a testament to the power of unity and compassion.

What Made This Toy Drive Different From Last Year?

What set this toy drive apart was the harmonious convergence of music, community, and care. We decided to elevate the event by bringing together the largest choir Miami had ever seen. It was such a spiritual experience and if you have been following EnterateMariviSara for some time, you know we have been promoting mental health awareness. This tied in perfectly to the mission in many ways. It was a reminder that when we come together, we can create something truly beautiful.

What was EnterateMariviSara’s Impact?

The impact of our toy drive extended far beyond what we expected. Through our collaboration with ETH, we were able to provide the community with invaluable resources and access to affordable healthcare. The response was heartwarming, and the best part is being able to have conversations with so many people and finding out how we could be of service. And perhaps the most remarkable outcome was that many members of our community now have access to healthcare without having to worry about the financial burden! For them, it means more than just medical care; it means peace of mind and a renewed sense of dignity.

As we reflect on the impact of our second annual toy drive, we are filled with gratitude and hope. Gratitude for the generosity of our community and the unwavering support of our partners at ETH. And hope for the future, knowing that together, we can continue to make a positive difference in the lives of those around us.

But our work is far from over. As we look ahead, we are committed to building on the success of this year’s toy drive and finding new ways to support and uplift our community. Because we believe that by coming together with love, compassion, and determination, we can create a brighter and more equitable future for all.
