LOVE4ALL
An outreach program founded in 2005, striving to redefine the holiday season for the unsheltered homeless population in the inner city of Washington, D.C.
OUR STORY
The heart of W.E.L.L's community involvement began with the CEO, Jacqueline Mapp, the mother of the mother-daughter Love4All's duo team that sprinkles holiday joy annually on Christmas Eve. Jacqueline in 2005 began the Christmas Eve drive with the first ten gift bags, which later in 2007 became 15 wrapped shoe-boxes in the fashion of a "Christmas Gift." Love4All's co-founder Lauren Mosley joined her mother's humanitarian efforts in 2007 while creating what is known today as the "The Wish List." "The Wish List"is the list of items that fill the inside of the shoeboxes. Items range from thermal socks to a miniature jar of peanut butter.
Love4All has a unique delivery system that was fully delevopled in 2009. We pride our program on personalizing our delivers to those sleeping on benches, grates, and sidewalks adjacent to some of the most prominent government buildings. In addition to delivering presents we incorporated feeding the homeless hot cheese and meat lovers pizza.
Today Love4All supports our community by reaching roughly 180 people as of 2016. We have warmed the hearts of those that are forever surprised, shocked and thankful for the slightest token of love on some of the coldest days of the year. We have grown to over 25 volunteers that share our same joy in delivering Christmas presents.
