Here are ways to help DARN this Holiday Season
Annual DARN Clothes Collection
DARN will be collecting winter gear (e.g., jackets, hats, gloves, and boots) along with gently used, laundered clothes of all sizes on Friday, November 30th and Saturday, December 1st. In support of the Bexley Middle School for their camping trips, we are also collecting the following items; sleeping bags, rain boots, and rain jackets. Please make sure all items are clean prior to dropping off. To help make sorting items easier for volunteers, if you are dropping off multiple bags, please sort bags by size and label.
Annual DARN Clothes Collection Drop-Off Details:
Friday, November 30th, 2018 at Montrose Elementary School from 5:00PM – 7:00PM.
Saturday, December 1st, 2018 at Jeffrey Mansion from 10:00AM – 2:00PM.
DARN Adopt-a-Family for the Holidays
Want to help a Bexley family in need of support over the holiday season? Please consider participating in the DARN Holiday Adopt-a-Family. There are many ways to help. You can adopt an entire family ($200-$750), an individual ($50-$125), donate $25 Target/Walmart/Kroger gift cards, or $10 gift cards to Main Street eateries. All support is greatly appreciated. Gift cards can be dropped off at the DARN Table at the Bexley Festival of the Arts at Montrose Elementary School and the Bexley Pancake Breakfast at Jeffrey Mansion. Gift cards will also be collected during the Annual DARN Clothing Collection.
If you are interested in donating gift cards, please contact Maja Maley
