If you would like to donate to either or both of two local charities which we support, please do so.

Families Forward is an Irvine based nonprofit that helps families in need achieve and maintain self-sufficiency through housing, food, counseling, and other support services. They collect and distribute donations of gift cards, toys or other items. See the list of gifts that are especially needed for children and teens during the holiday season. An easy out is a couple of small gift cards for Target etc. All the new & unwrapped gifts will be taken to Families Forward on Monday.

The Bicycle Tree is a nonprofit community bike center and shop in Santa Ana.  One of their missions is to refurbish bikes and donate them to those in need.  They collect used bicycles, bicycle parts, gently worn cycling clothes and accessories for this purpose.  Clean out a closet or garage & bring it along! All the donations will be taken to the Bicycle Tree the following week.

We look forward to seeing you at the holiday party!
