Event History: In 2001, CLUES began hosting Al Niño con Cariño – To A Child with Love, a holiday event offering gifts and cheer to the families we serve, after discovering that many of our clients did not have the means to celebrate the holidays with their families. The initiative began as a small effort to provide toys and other needed items to a select number of sponsored families and has since grown with the help of many dedicated staff, volunteers, and community partners. As our capacity to reach more families has increased every year, so has the community need.
As word of CLUES Al Niño con Cariño spreads within our community each year, we look to partners like you to help us make this holiday season brighter for the many families that come to CLUES for help. Your support is crucial to ensure that the hundreds of families counting on CLUES will have gifts to provide for their children this Christmas.
Event Description: For some children in our community, the holidays can be a painful reminder of what they have to live without. During this season of joy, CLUES hosts one day-long event, Al Niño con Cariño – To A Child with Love located in Minneapolis, offering low-income families the opportunity to select gifts for their children during the holiday season.
With the help of volunteers and donations, CLUES’ offices turn into a veritable winter wonderland; while children wait, watching holiday movies, decorating cookies, and playing games, their parents step into a room filled with donated new toys where they carefully pick out one gift for each of their children. These gifts are carefully wrapped by volunteers to keep the magic of the holiday season alive. For children whose parents are struggling, Al Niño con Cariño can often mean the difference between a holiday with presents and one without.
CLUES Latino Youth Conference provides an exciting opportunity for Latino high school students and their parents (or other supportive adults in their lives) to engage with Minnesota’s top Latino professionals while building confidence, identifying skills and interests and exploring future career pathways. Separate tracks are offered for youth and parents, with parent sessions offered in both Spanish and English.
