About the List
The Grab-A-Gift Wishlist works a little bit like a registry. We have created a wishlist of things that we will need this season. We will have each item printed on a card at the gala, however, we know that not everyone will be able to attend, so we’ve added some of our key wishlist items right here on our website! Use the button at the bottom of the page to make your contribution today!
This way, you know exactly what you’re contributing toward, and so do we! It’s important to us that we can attach your contribution to a specific item, so we know exactly who to thank, and you know exactly how you supported us!
All items will be tax deductible!
