LITTLE Kids Do BIG Things — Drive for Kids in Hospital
Under the theme, Little Kids Can Do Big Things, our younger Dharma School kids are actively collecting brand new games, activity books, and more for the families at Ronald McDonald House. These students range from pre-K to Third Grade level.
This request teaches our young students the importance of Dana, selfless giving, one of the six “perfections” or paramitas recommended to us on our Buddhist path.
Our kids sincerely ask you to please consider donating for families with children in the hospital.
They are asking for NEW ITEMS* such as
Coloring Books
Colored Pencils
Activity Books
Puzzle Books, like
- Crossword Puzzles
- Word Search
- Sudoku
Games, like
- Scrabble
- Checkers
- Uno
- Chutes & Ladders
- Or??
Playing Cards
Items can be brought to the Temple before or after Sunday Services, or to the Temple Office, through March. Our collection box is in the Office level lobby.
Visit the Temple in March and you will see handmade posters promoting the event, like the one below. All posters are from our kids in Dharma School.
*Please Note: The Ronald McDonald House Charities will only accept new items still in their packaging, even if the item is otherwise new or only gently used. This restriction is likely to protect the health of the children.
