Cascade Ridge is once again collecting holiday
gifts for local families in need. We are
partnering with the Issaquah Food Bank to help
fill their Holiday Gift Barn. The Food Bank will
set up a 'store' at Pickering Barn where families
can shop for needed items and holiday gifts.
Holiday Gift Barn representatives will visit each
classroom and share more information with
students.
You can bring in an item from the classroom
theme, OR donate a toy for any age, OR donate
a grocery gift card, OR donate gift wrapping
supplies. If you would like to donate an item
that is not in your classroom theme, please feel
free to bring that in as well.
Grade Level Theme suggestions are as follows:
K and LRC: Baby supplies, Diapers, wipes,
clothes, toys, bibs
1st grade: Art supplies/school supplies

2nd grade: pajamas, socks, underwear (all sizes
boy or girl), purses and hair supplies, make-up/
nail polish for teens
3rd grade: board games, Legos, bedroom
decorations/wall art
4th grade: hats, gloves, scarfs in any size for
boys and girls and Seahawks or Sounders
clothing for teens
5th grade: Books, DVD's, video games for
elementary and teens
Donations will be collected in the classroom the
week of November 26-30. All items need to
be new and unwrapped. Please bring items to
your classroom and leave them in the
designated Holiday Gift Barn boxes. Gifts will
be delivered to the Gift Barn on December 4th!
If you have questions please contact your
classroom representative. Participation is
optional, of course. Thank you, in advance, for
your help in making the holidays brighter for so
many local families!
