Meet the folks from NBC Bay Area and Telemundo 48, and enjoy music from Connoisseur Media's radio stations Mix 106.5 and Bay Country.
Don't want to bring a donation but would rather shop for supplies at the adjacent Target instead? We've got you covered. We'll give you one of our supply lists so you can then shop and drop them off on your way out.
All donations support NBC Bay Area's "Supporting Our Schools" initiative, in partnership with Connoisseur Media and Family Giving Tree.
Can't make it to the event? Donate online. It's easy and a great way to get your kids involved in helping another student. Check it out.
