Community Holiday Gifts

Once again this holiday season, Madison School has partnered with HCS Family Services to fulfill wish list items for families in financial need. Please join us in this special program as we purchase gifts for neighbors needing our support. You may register for gifts HERE.

Please return the *wrapped and labeled* gifts to school between Monday, December 1st and Tuesday, December 9th. Gift labels will be sent home in your child's backpack to adhere to the package(s).

We ask that all gifts be limited to $50 per recipient. While multiple items may be listed, not all items need to be purchased. 

If you prefer to make a monetary contribution, we are graciously accepting donations to provide gifts and needed toiletries.  Please click HERE to make a donation.

Questions? Please email chg@madisonpto.org - thank you!
