“Our partnership with The York Street Project is important to our staff because it allows us to step back from our daily work and make a meaningful impact in our community, which is deeply rewarding for everyone involved,” said Natalie Hicklin, Chief of Staff at Komar.

Komar’s growing partnership with The York Street Project extends beyond holiday events, from Komar Cares members providing donations for the organization’s shop and gifting program, to company sponsorship of their annual Evening Under the Stars fundraiser.

Proceeds from this event support the mission of the York Street Project, funding innovative programs that provide shelter, food, education, healing and independence to those in need, with a focus on women, children and families. Since 1989, we have been dedicated to breaking the cycle of poverty.

The collaboration reflects Komar’s commitment to living its values by fostering strong community ties, and working to make a positive impact in the world. As Komar Cares and The York Street Project look to the future, their partnership continues to grow, demonstrating the power of connection, compassion and collective action in creating lasting change.
