Now’s a good time to clean out the closets and make room for incoming Christmas presents. Donate your new and gently-used items at our Curbside Donation Collection this week Tuesday 11/12 to Friday 11/15.

We’re also STILL collecting canned juice, Coke, Diet Coke, and Sprite, as well as boxes of individually-sized chips.

PTO members you have until Friday 11/15, for first dibs on the *NEW* Eden in Love collar items, as well as a restock of some of previously sold-out pixie pouches, medium totes, and large totes. Check your emails for the links or email president@moanaluapto.org for more information.
