Good evening CJD! We have a partnership with Grace Klein to serve our community. Please bring in donations for our Grace Klein donation barrels. We are taking anything you think others may need that is new or gently used (similar concept to the concept of Salvation Army donations). This will be on going throughout this year and next year. When the barrel is 3/4 full they come and pick it up and we start over collecting donations. Grace Klein takes these donations and pushes them back out to the community, including our school! Let's be sure to be apart of the circle of GIVING! We have already filled our first two barrels and look forward to keeping them filled! Students that bring in donations will earn Tiger Bucks!!
