It’s never too early to start preparing for a party! We are officially diving into the planning for our 2026 Lunar New Year (LNY) celebration.

If you’d like to donate a raffle prize:

  • Please bring it to the PCLS Admin Team on any Sunday before December 21, 2025.

A few ground rules for donations (because we love clarity):

  • Retail Value: $25 or more. (We’re aiming for prizes that make people shout!)

  • Condition: Must be NEW and UNOPENED. (No dusty relics, please.)

  • Appropriateness: Items should be suitable for the occasion and our audience.

Tax receipts are available upon request.
