We will collect toys from now until the day before Thanksgiving, November 25. Drop off your donations Tuesdays, Wednesdays, or Thursdays between 11am – 5pm at the north front door or before Kriya Thursday evenings 6pm – 7pm at the south main door. If none of these times work, email Purnima here and she will arrange a drop off time with you.
