This is not a trash can
Thanks for all your help! Because of your generosity we were able to donate a bunch of school supplies to schools in Chesapeake to help students. For the month of October we're collecting candy, individual size bags of it, like skittles, M&M's, bubble gum and others to help make some needy kids fall festivals great. We'll donate to a local school in South Norfolk so the students can have all the sugar they can handle. Just drop a bag of candy in the big silver tin in the lobby.
