Plans for 2020-2021
Gifts From the Heart Holiday Shop
We will collect toys and gift cards for the Gifts from the Heart Christmas (holiday) Shop and on Friday, November 20th, and this includes a contact free personal pick up from a designated location of your choice.
- Update: We collected over $600 worth of toys, bikes, dolls, jewelry and other gift items. Fantastic job by our members. Thank you everyone!
Light the Lantern
We will be working with Brevard Public Schools to collect hygiene items for students who are homeless or low-income in Brevard. The plans are being finalized now but we hope to have a lighted lantern path leading to the collection site on December 10th from 5-9pm. More information will be coming soon. This will be another contactless event as drivers can stay in their car, pass the donation through their car windows, and drop into a collection container. The seven (7) items most wanted are soap, deodorant, shampoo/conditioner, body wash, feminine hygiene products, toothbrushes and toothpaste.
- Update: Waiting on final location for this event. Donations of local lists and commercials are being made to get the word out.
Plastic Brigade
Be a part of this statewide plastic cleanup day this spring. Clubs from all over the Florida and the Caribbean and help attack the invasion of plastic debris in our ocean and on our beaches by working together on the same day to make a lasting impact. More information coming soon.
