Join the Life Science Cares Community in San Diego in collecting NEW Halloween Costumes to be donated to the unhoused students of the Monarch School.
LSC is inviting all of our corporate partners to hold drives in their offices to collect NEW Halloween Costumes and bags of bulk candy. These donations help ensure that unhoused students are able to have a fun and happy Halloween, where they are able to pick out their costumes and go trick or treating in their school!

Please register your team here.
Dates:
Last day to register: 10/15/24
Last day to donate costumes in office or by mail: 10/28/24
Days to drop off costumes at Monarch School (1625 Newton Ave. San Diego CA 92113): Before 10/28/24 (LSC will connect you with Monarch School to plan for a drop off)
Resources for engaging your team in the drive:
- Email communication to send to your team to share information about the drive. Feel free to edit as appropriate for your team.
- Flyer to post in your office about drive.
- Amazon wish list – this list can provide suggestions to your team on what to purchase, and it allows employees to send costumes directly to the Monarch School (great way to engage remote employees!) If an employee would like have the costume sent directly to the Monarch School please have them buy from the Amazon wish list to have them be shipped directly to the Monarch School. Note: LSC is unable to track donations per company via the Amazon wish list UNLESS the person ordering writes the company name as their name.

About the Monarch School:Monarch School has served as a place of hope and belonging to thousands of unhoused students since 1987. The unique and innovative Kindergarten through 12th grade school provides students with the stability and security they need to heal and learn.
Nearly 300 students attend Monarch School each day and are provided a holistic education designed to meet their academic, social, emotional, and life skill needs. Monarch School is a trauma-informed and strength-based community where students can persevere through the trauma of homelessness that has affected them and their success in education. At Monarch, they give students the skills and tools they need to overcome these odds. From increased attendance and academic performance to emotional wellness and earning a high school diploma, students are defining success on their own terms and thriving at Monarch.
THANK YOU!!!!!!
