π Help us bring holiday cheer to local kids!
We are hosting a Toy & Gift Drive benefiting Cornerstone Christmas, supporting over 350 children in our local area this season. We are collecting new, unwrapped toys and gifts valued above $15, with our greatest need being items for kids and teens ages 8β18. In order to offer a varied selection for our youth and prevent duplicate donations, we kindly ask that no books or board games be collected right now.
Drop-off location: Baker Elementary Front Office
Collection deadline: Tuesday, December 1st
Thank you for helping us make Christmas morning special for our neighbors!
