Toys For Tots Update

I just wanted to post and say a special "thank you" to the Orientation Center for the Blind for their generous toy donation!

While I will be taking toy donations all year round, the Toys For Tots folks would really love to get everything for Christmas by December 15th. I will be taking the bulk of the Christmas donations on saturday morning, so please bring your donations so they can be giving for the holiday!

Also, I'll be dropping off the One Warm Coat donations for the holiday seasons on the 21st, so if you have any coats, sweaters, sweatshirts, scarves, hats, etc. to donate please drop them off!

Thanks to you all :)

Deck the Halls...

Hi folks! Couple of quick updates:

1. The Toys For Tots drive is still going! Even though it's a year-round event, the Alameda field office is asking that all donations specifically for Christmas be delivered to them by the 15th of December. Just a few more days left to make a child's holiday that much brighter!

Not sure what to get? I do have a small selection of toys in the shop that can be purchased and placed directly in the donation box! You can also donate a couple of dollars at the register to be donated as well.

2. Our One Warm Coat drive is still in effect as well, thanks to those who have already dropped coats by! We are collecting coats, sweaters, jackets, sweatshirts etc. for men women and children, and they don't need to be new (just clean). Now's the time to clean out your closet, and help keep someone warm this winter at the same time!

3. It feels weird to be typing this, but someone has stolen our door mat. I'm not sure why, considering it was from Ikea and quite wet with rain at the time it was taken, but all I can figure is someone really and truly needed it more than we do. Maybe we should start hosting a doormat drive sometime soon?

Got Toys or Clothes to Donate?

My store is now a drop-off point for Toys For Tots and One Warm Coat!

Toys For Tots:

-Unwrapped toys worth $10 - $20, ideally they'd like to have the bulk by December 15th but they can accept donations after that as well

One Warm Coat:

-Think of any outwear that will keep someone warm -- a coat, sweater, jacket, sweatshirt. Also, if you have any hats or mittens, they would be appreciated also.

Come on by and make someone's holiday a little brighter with your donation!
