Hey y'all hey. The post that I posted is NOT for your kids to sign up. We're not even there yet. We're asking for people to donate for teens. That's it that's all. When it's time for us to accept teens we will post it as of now we're only accepting donations.

Y'all know it's almost that time. Winter wonderland...... More details coming soon. In the meantime we will be collecting gift cards for teens. Our teenagers are left out of a lot of the Christmas giveaways because of their age. The cut off is 12 years old. Help us not leave any teenagers out this year for Christmas. You can pick up a gift card (or multiple ones) and we can meet to get them from you or you can donate to us and we will pick up. Thank you for your support community.
