You’ve heard that Athena Home and School is putting on a Holiday Gift Mart on December 17th, 2019, with a storm date of December 18th, 2019, and we’ve got some details to share.
This is new to Athena so here is how it works: each student’s family will donate new or gently used items to the gift mart. The students will shop at the gift mart for their family members and in order to ensure every student gets a chance to buy something, they will be limited to a maximum of 3 items for $1 per item.
The most important part of this is the donations, which is where you come in. The kids LOVE having a gift they’ve purchased as a surprise under the tree for you, but it means we need lots of donations of those items you’ve been looking to move on to a new home! This includes lightly used or new low-cost gifts that can be helpful around the house. Including toiletries, small hand tools or toys (in good working order). We can’t use food or most clothing, but scarves are fine.
We also need wrapping material, like gift bags, tissue paper, tape, scissors and gift tags. If you wanted to send your child with pre-filled gift tags with the intended recipient (ie. Mom, Dad, sibling, etc.) that would be helpful too!

We’ll be sorting through all the items on the 16th so please get those donations in this week!
And CONGRATULATIONS to Lauren Power on winning the Gift Card Raffle!
Thank you so much for your help and have a wonderful Christmas season!
