Have a Halloween costume that’s ready for a new home? We’d love to give it another chance to shine! We’ll be accepting clean, freshly washed costumes in good condition starting Sunday, September 20, and hosting our community swap on Sunday, October 4. You don’t need to donate a costume to take one, and you don’t need to take one to donate. Each child present at the swap can choose one costume, and any costumes left over will be donated. Come share, swap, and help make Halloween a little more fun (and affordable) for everyone!
