Holiday Service Project Reminder
Don't forget about our Holiday Service Drive organized by our Project Challenge students. We are looking for donations such as new toys, new games, toiletries, and food for the needy families in the Darien area. All donations are due on Monday, December 13. Thank you for opening up your hearts to help make the holidays a happy one for those who are less fortunate!
