We have two caring initiatives to give back to our Community this season of giving. No matter which Holiday Drive you can help out with you will make a difference to children in our community this holiday season.
TOY DRIVE
Birchview’s 4th Annual Toy Drive is now under way. We will be collecting donations from November 20th to November 29th. The items we collect will be donated through the Simcoe Paramedics Services Toy Drive. All donations will be distributed to local children and families in need by charitable organizations working in partnership with Simcoe County Paramedic Services.
Gift ideas include: toys, books, games, and gift cards. All donations need to be new and unwrapped.
OUR HOLIDAY BOX DRIVE
That’s right; our school is participating with communities in the surrounding area to help other children in need during the holidays. Our HolidayBox Drive will be collecting donations that will go towards the Children’s Aid Society until December 5th. We really hope that you can help us out with this endeavor. Here is how it works:
• Our focus is children our age (7-8 years old). Of course any donations for infants up to teenagers are welcome as well.
• Donations may include: clothing, toys, tooth brush, gloves, hats, scarves, pocket size lotions, travel games, school supplies (pens, pencils, lined paper, binders), flash lights, sporting goods, gift cards – Wal Mart, Shopper Drug Mart, Pizza, Movies etc).
• Please ensure that any donations are in their original packaging
Thank you for supporting these very worthy causes, helping ensure that all children have a good Christmas this year. We will have boxes at the Ladies Night Out—One Stop Holiday Shop on Nov 28th
