T&E Care 2021 Holiday Drive

New Eagle Elementary School Collection

Monday, November 8th – Tuesday, November 30th

Each year, T&E Care supports local persons and families by providing gifts during the holiday season. This year, we invite you to help spread holiday cheer by donating gift cards, making a donation to T&E Care and/or donating an essential personal item.

Here’s how you can help:

Donate a Walmart, Target or Acme gift card. Denominations of $25 are preferred but a card in ANY amount is greatly appreciated. (Please be sure to write the amount on the card.)
Send cash or a check in an envelope labeled “T&E Care Holiday Drive” to school with your child. Envelopes will be collected in the school office and promptly given to school T&E Care representatives. Make checks payable to T&E Care.
Venmo a donation to T&E Care (@TECARE). Please be sure to write “NES Holiday Drive” in the notes section and provide your e-mail address (the organization uses this information simply to thank its donors).
Donate a NEW blanket, umbrella and/or reusable water bottle. A labeled collection box will be in the school lobby to make donating these items easy for students and parents who are coming in for conferences later this month.

There are also specific donations requested by families, please be as generous as possible:

This is just a reminder that if you are interested in helping with the T&E Care Holiday Drive – please sign up soon and claim your family or gifts or gift cards. Everything is needed by Dec. 4 or 5 (drop off days). Gift cards can be dropped off earlier by contacting us at giftcards@tecare.org.

There are multiple tabs on the SignUp Genius link with lots of options still to be claimed. If you’ve already lent a hand, THANK YOU! This is one really big team effort and we appreciate all who are willing to be part of the T&E Care team! Questions can go to holidays@tecare.org

The event will be held outside at the amphitheater at Wilson Farm Park (500 Lee Rd, Chesterbrook) – so everyone get ready to do another dance to the weather gods!
