DECEMBER EVENTS

 DSA EVENTS THIS MONTH:


MONTHLY MEETING - Virtual
DSA Monthly Meeting and Christmas Party
Dec 17. 7:PM  - Virtual on Thursday - Let's Sing Christmas Songs

TOY DRIVE
As part on our Mission Statement each year we partner with Sons of Hermann Hall as a proud sponsor of  “Blue Christmas in July” event. This 20 plus year old organization provides Christmas toys to underprivileged children in south Dallas who may not otherwise receive gifts at Christmas time. Click on the link below to donate:


One hundred % of your donation goes to the purchase of toys. This is a charity so very close to my heart as I have seen the smile on the faces of children who didn’t expect to get anything for Christmas.
Want to drop off a toy in person? You can do that on Friday, Dec 11, 5 - 8 at Sons of Hermann Hall.
