It's time to clean out your closets, go through your drawers, replace those curtains and worn out towels
and DONATE IT ALL! We encourage you to collect bags from your family, friends and neighbors so that we can meet our minimum of 2,300 lbs of donated items (the equivalent of 150 donated kitchen sized bags)!
The proceeds will help offset the cost of the Quebec trip for our Seventh Grade family. Thank you in advance for your support!
