Our Impact
What started as a small, one-woman costume collection effort in New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina, has turned into the only nationally-recognized Halloween costume donation organization providing thousands of costumes each year to children across the country. What’s more, ‘WEEN DREAM’s team of volunteers works to provide each child with a costume that has been hand-selected for their character preference, sizing, and special accommodations, if necessary. Over 100 volunteers have donated 12,000 hours of their time to match 15,000 new and gently-used costumes to ‘WEENSTERS in 38 states since 2014.
