We’re Collecting #Costumes4Kids in Winnipeg

Halloween is a special time for many people, but lots of kids in Winnipeg can’t afford Halloween costumes.

That’s why we’re excited to announce that we’re participating in the #Costumes4Kids fundraiser, and will be collecting new and gently used costume donations at our store during regular business hours at our location at 12-A ,2188 McPhillips Street.

Some backstory on the project (via Facebook):

This idea came to light when Callie from Callies Backpacks for Winnipeg’s Homeless, her mom, Crystal, noticed her mom taking her bins of used costumes to work as an EA so that children who’s families couldn’t afford them wouldn’t feel left out. Callie thought she could gather costumes to give to under resourced families, using social media.

So Callie and Crystal spoke to some amazing friends about what they wanted do and asked them to help. 

Our store hours are:

Monday – Friday: 9:00am – 6:00pm
Saturday: 10:00am – 5:00pm
Sunday: Closed

Please come by, say hello, and drop off your new and gently used costumes and help make Halloween a special time for every kid in Winnipeg.
