This is the 34th year that the school has collected toys for the holiday season where about 91% of their students&#8217; families are well below the poverty line. Without these gifts, many of the students wouldn&#8217;t have any gifts to open on Christmas morning. When each family comes to pick up their children&#8217;s gifts, they are asked to bring at least one canned food item that is then donated to an area food bank in order to pay it forward. Last year we donated 300 toys and are aiming to beat that this year! We know that this year more than ever, they will need our support and we are happy to help provide for these families in need.<\/p>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h3>Virginia<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-thumbnail wp-image-114321\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bhgre.com\/bhgrelife\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/basecamp-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #339933;\">Events submitted by\u00a0<a style=\"color: #339933;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bhgre.com\/better-homes-and-gardens-real-estate-base-camp-4793c\">Better Homes and Gardens Real Estate<\/a><a style=\"color: #339933;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bhgre.com\/better-homes-and-gardens-real-estate-base-camp-4793c\"> Base Camp<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><strong>Winter Coat Drive<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">Bring in your gently used winter coats to one of the Better Homes and Gardens Real Estate Base Camp locations.
