PRIDE

Our next big PRIDE project is to give a new set of pajamas to each student at our sister school, Downer Elementary this holiday season. Using the donations made through the VG registration, we are purchasing most of the pairs of pajamas. However, if any of our amazing VG families would like to purchase a new pair of pajamas for a student at Downer Elementary, we are in need of the following sizes: 10-12 for boys and girls, 12-14 for boys and girls, and 14-16 for boys and girls. Please deliver your donations to VG at school supply pick up days (10/22, 11/5, 11/19 and 12/3). Thank you so much for your continued support and generosity!
