Looking Ahead: Fall Shoe Drive
For each pair of shoes you donate at the Back to School Bash, you will receive a ticket for our prize drawing. Multiple prizes will be awarded!
Be sure to mention the Shoe Drive to family, friends and co-workers. Everyone has an extra pair of shoes or two cluttering up their closet that they would love to be rid of!
We will be accepting all styles of footwear, including new, gently used, used, and unwearable shoes, sneakers, rubber soccer cleats, and rubber baseball cleats. The HSA will earn $1.00 for every pair of wearable sneaker, wearable rubber soccer cleat, and wearable rubber baseball cleat, and $0.10 per pair for all other styles and conditions of footwear.
2020 Designer Bag Bingo Event - Chairperson Needed
Subcommittees will be formed to organize the donations and raffles, the decorations and the publicity but we need someone to take the lead. This year's organizers are happy to help guide you. Forms and checklists will be available.
Want additional support? Ask a friend (or spouse) to co-chair with you.
