5th Annual PTA Charity Bazaar
Join the festivities and shopping opportunities
at the PTA Charity Bazaar on Saturday November
18. Over 70 vendors will be offering unique
gift items, floral arrangements, textiles,
festive cards and decorations, silk crafts,
jewelry, chocolates, Build-a-Bears, international
foods, and much more! WAB choirs, local dancers
and the ES band will provide entertainment,
and our famous PTA Bake Sale will offer home-baked
goods and mulled wine. As always, free admission
and ample parking are available.
This year we’re highlighting Angels, “the
gift with a difference,” as the
perfect gift for that person on your
list who has everything. The purchase
of an Angel, handcrafted by WAB students,
guarantees food and warmth for an elderly,
destitute person in China this winter.
Other charities in attendance at this
year’s bazaar will include: Blue
Sky Healing Home, Phillip Hayden, Global
Action Group, Animals Asia, Unicef, Positive
Art Workshop, Magic Hospital, New Life
and Surmang Foundation. All proceeds
from table rentals will be donated to
the Charles Foundation, which the Charity
Committee has previously supported. This
year, our donation will support the erection
of a new school especially for Tibetan
children living in the remote mountains
of the Muli prefecture.
