Grab a bag and save all those school dress clothes that do not fit. Our school nurse can use them to stock our shelves. These donations are useful if someone has an accident, got sick on themselves, maybe had a bloody nose, or their shirt choice does not quite meet dress code. You can drop off donations any time at the front office. We thank you in advance for all donations.
