Holiday Toy Drive
Most of us know that Highlander families have been the recipient of a huge toy drive every year. Sadly, our person who held these has retired and we need to fill the gap!
To do so we will be holding a drive-through event on 12/9 from 10-2pm for families, staff and community to drop off toys and gift cards.
Please consider one or both of the following
Bring a new, unwrapped toy or gift card to the drive by or to any of the campuses. Share this flyer on your social media .
We are asking families that need some help during the holiday season to complete the following form
