Giving Snowman in memory of David Richard Nuñez

David Richard Nuñez, a husband, a father, a son, a brother and a friend, created the Giving Snowman many years ago when I was working at my previous school as their school counselor. That year, I had a particularly high homeless population, so David (who struggled with homelessness as a child) took it upon himself to talk his company into sponsoring the families at my school. That year we helped 35 families and over 100 kids by providing toys, clothes, food and gift cards. The tradition continued for years with the support of David's company. Tragically David died young, at the age of 38. His wonderful company continued to honor his memory by sponsoring our local families at our different schools. Unfortunately, the COVID-19 pandemic prevented his company from being able to fully support us moving forward. At the same time—due to the same pandemic—homelessness in Massachusetts rose rapidly.

Going into our 18th year, my children and I continue to honor David's spirit of giving to those in need, which is greatly needed. Adam has started an organization on his campus and is directly involved with the unhoused and homeless communities.

David was a unique soul who lived much of a life in his 38 years. He was incredibly generous, if he had $30 left for the entire week, he would share it all with you. Over the years, The Giving Snowman has helped over 250 families and well over 1,000 children. Any support helps.

*As always, this year 100% of these funds go directly to our local school/s, community members and families in most need. Thank you all so much...

Judith, Adam & Lila (in loving memory of the man who changed the lives of others)
