‘Ween Dream is an all-volunteer 501(C)(3) nonprofit that gives free Halloween costumes to children, or ‘weensters, in need across America.

Our Kiwanis club supports Key Club service projects, facilitate their meetings, provide mentorships, and sponsor college scholarships for the students. We are currently sponsoring the following Kiwanis Key clubs:

We support St. Michael’s Special School by hosting their annual Back to School Dance, their Popsicle Party, and by cooking and preparing food for their innumerable events.
St. Michael Special School educates students age six through adulthood with intellectual and developmental disabilities. The school is unique in that it provides for the development of the whole child—academically, physically, emotionally, and spiritually—regardless of their disability.
Magnolia Community Services
We support the Magnolia Community Services by hosting bingo parties, by providing Christmas wish lists to disabled clients, and by hosting a Mardi Gras bead drive to reduce waste and support their clients.

We support Grounds Krewe as they promote waste prevention, recycling, and sustainable “throws” and products for NOLA events.
