In-Kind Gifts:

Participate in our amazon wish list that supports our Holiday Superstore. Its that time again, to start thinking about Super Store and donations. This is an event we hold around Christmas time. Our parents earn points by participating in events at school, and collect points for their super store booklet. Parents turn in their booklet and based upon their “points” they will receive special items for their children or family. That’s where you come in…..We are seeking donations of toys, household items, etc. Anything that would make the families/children feel special. Oh and of course, wrapping paper!
