🎄 Donations Needed for the Annual Christmas Bazaar! 🎁

We’re collecting donations for our Annual Christmas Bazaar on December 6th! This special event gives children the chance to shop for holiday gifts for their loved ones—all at an affordable price (everything under $5!).

This tradition is made possible thanks to the generosity of our community and the wonderful donations we receive each year.

Have extra wrapping paper, boxes, or bows left over from last year? We’d love to take them off your hands!

Need some inspiration for what to donate? Check out our Amazon Wish List: https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/1FBCFC2NL96KS?ref_=wl_fv_le
