Friday night’s community party at Garfield is an opportunity to make a local kid’s holiday great — and to see that joy first hand. Here’s a last-minute invitation to help from organizer Elisa Porter:

Still Needed

We are getting closer to having the toys we need. So much thanks goes out to those that have donated! Toys are still needed for ages 5-11. If you want a truly heart warming experience, come help organize all the toys and give them out. Volunteers can come anytime between 3pm and 5pm, and stay as late as you like.

Toy and monetary donations are being accepted at all Parks and Recreation Community Centers.  You can also still sign up to volunteer. Call 684-4559 or e-mail [email protected]

Central Seattle Community Center Holiday Parties
In addition to Garfield, the community is rallying around some other ‘parties for everybody’ in the area. The East Precinct is helping out at the Yesler Community Center for its celebration on Friday. We hear turnout was great to help wrap presents for the Miller Community Center party. You can stop by to enjoy the holiday feel or lend a hand on Saturday.
