Charbonneau Sharing begins Dec . 1
We all know this holiday season is going to be a challenge for many in our community who have been affected by the pandemic , wildfires , loss of employment , etc .
For the past several years , Charbonneau has donated toys to Toy & Joy / Compassion in Action of Clackamas County . This year , the toy distribution center is going to be operating very differently because of CO- VID-19 and are asking donors to consider giving gift cards from local businesses rather than toys . This way , the families can obtain items themselves while supporting local businesses . Of course , it is still acceptable to give toys as in the past .
It is so easy to participate ! Beginning Dec . 1 , here is what you do :
� Bring a gift card ( preferred ) or unwrapped toy to the Charbonneau Clubhouse during business hours ( Monday through Friday from 9 a . m . to 5 p . m .)
� Do this between Dec . 1 and Dec .
17
� We will deliver the donated items to the collection site
Charbonneau is a very generous , caring community and we are looking forward to spreading some more of that Charbonneau spirit to the greater community .
