Give Hope, Create Impact, Change a Life

Every contribution helps us provide mentorship, resources, and safe spaces for youth and families who need it most.

Our Story, Your Impact

The ItsReal Initiative was founded in honor of a life that impacted so many others.

Izzy believed in showing up for people, in lifting others up, and in making sure no one felt alone. That belief still drives everything we do.

Today, there are young people facing bullying, struggling with their mental health, and searching for a safe space to simply be themselves.

There are families navigating loss, uncertainty, and challenges they were never prepared for.

Your support helps us show up for them.

Dear ItsReal Initiative Team,

I want to express my deepest gratitude for your incredible generosity this past Christmas. Your thoughtful donation allowed me, as Santa, to bring joy and hope to 46 children who otherwise might not have received a gift during the holidays.

Because of your kindness, I was able to visit homeless shelters, women’s shelters, and even make special house visits to children battling terminal illnesses. The smiles, laughter, and pure happiness you helped create were truly priceless.

Your support didn’t just provide gifts—it made a real difference in the lives of these children and their families. You reminded them that they are loved, valued, and never forgotten.

Thank you for partnering in this mission of spreading joy and compassion. Together, we made Christmas brighter for so many.

Thank you for all you did,

Santa T Clause- aka Tony Harris
