What to Donate
We’re looking for items that can be gifts for adults and children. Students may be selecting a gift for their parents, grandparents, or siblings!
Things to consider for donations:
“Would I be comfortable wrapping this and re-gifting it?” and
“Can this be carried home from school by a 5 year old child in kindergarten?”
