  • Tea and Hot Cocoa
  • Snack size individual portions of Cheese and Crackers, Pretzels, Cheezits, Graham Crackers
  • Cough Drops and other Hard Candy
  • Boxes of Kleenex
  • Jars of Peanut Butter and Jelly

Everything, including cash donations may be dropped off a the Down East Family YMCA by Monday February 10th, as the bags will be distributed on Friday, February 14th, Valentine's Day!

They would also love to have some homemade Valentine's Day cards made by children!
