GIVING FOR THANKSGIVING

As part of an ongoing effort to meet the needs of families within our local schools, we are extending an opportunity for our community to participate in the Giving For Thanksgiving outreach. 35 families in need of assistance have been identified from our elementary, middle and high schools.  Our goal is to provide the necessary items for them to enjoy a Thanksgiving dinner.  

Items collecting are:

stuffing mix, instant mashed potatoes, canned vegetables, bars of soap, toothbrushes, toothpaste, shampoo/conditioner, laundry detergent and dryer sheets.

Box 901 Malibu, CA 90265. All donations are tax-deductible.
