At Riverside Homebuilders, we’re proud to hold a deep-seated commitment to supporting and uplifting the communities that surround our new homes in the Dallas-Fort Worth area. For us, the holiday season is more than just festive decorations and family gatherings—it's an opportunity to spread warmth and compassion to those who need it most. This commitment is embodied in our annual Phillip's Wish Donation Drive, a heartfelt initiative that has become a cherished tradition for our team. As we wrap up another successful year, join us in sharing the spirit of giving and making a difference in the lives of the homeless community in DFW.

About Phillip’s Wish

Phillip's Wish is not just an organization—it's an inspiring, phenomenal initiative that blossomed from the compassion of a young boy who recognized a need in the world and decided to take action. As a 501c3 non-profit organization, Phillip's Wish focuses on giving back to the homeless community in DFW by providing essential resources and fostering unity within our communities.

Phillip's concern for those experiencing homelessness became the driving force behind a movement that has touched thousands of lives. As a mother and son who personally witnessed the heartbreaking struggles of homelessness in DFW, they decided to embark on a mission to collect blankets and distribute them to every homeless person they encountered—thus, the inception of Phillip's Wish took shape. Starting with a collection of 200 blankets in its first year, Phillip's Wish rapidly grew, accumulating over 20,000 blankets, along with hats, scarves, gloves, sleeping bags, toiletries and thousands of toys by its fourth year.

As a proud partner of this remarkable organization, we aim to help extend the reach of Phillip's Wish and his dream of ensuring comfort for everyone—especially through our annual donation drive. Together, with your contributions, we can ensure that warmth, care and compassion reach those who need it most during this holiday season and beyond.

Touching lives through our donation drive

From November 15 until December 15, our model homes across the Dallas-Fort Worth area and our corporate office have transformed into hubs of generosity. The support from our homeowners, partners and the community has been truly overwhelming. Visitors to our model homes were greeted not only by beautifully designed living spaces—but also by the warmth of giving. Blankets, hats, coats, toiletries, sleeping bags and gloves have poured in as donations, and Riverside Homebuilders couldn’t be more honored to do our part with this inspirational donation drive.

The entire Riverside team has taken immense pride in witnessing the outpouring of support from individuals who, like us, believe in making a difference.
