Annual Trotter School Holiday Gift Drive 2024
- Wednesday, November 6, 2024 - Sunday, December 15
- All Day Event
The annual Holiday Gift Collection for the 390 students at Grove Hall’s William Monroe Trotter K-6 School is underway! You can brighten the holidays by providing gifts by December 15, 2024 for students ranging in age from K (3 years) to 6th grade (12 years of age). Ideas include: toys, books, academic-type projects, dolls, arts and crafts materials, and games.
Gifts should be:
- Unwrapped and delivered to TBE in the Collection Box
- Non-violent (no guns)
- $30 limit per gift (so there is equity among siblings receiving gifts)
There are many ways to contribute:
- Drop off unwrapped gifts, valued at $30 or less at TBE.
- Order gifts through the Amazon Gift Registry and send to TBE.
- Purchase gift cards from Target bring to TBE.
- Contribute to the RJI Fund for RJI purchases from Black-owned Businesses and gift cards: click here, select “Racial Justice Initiative Fund” in the fund dropdown menu, and then put “Trotter School Holiday Gift Drive” in the field below labeled “Is there a TBE gift drive you are supporting?”
This event is sponsored by TBE’s Racial Justice Initiative, which works to increase our understanding and activism to address ongoing discrimination and inequality.
