We ask for help and our community NEVER disappoints! Our Bulldog Boutique relies SOLELY on the generosity of our families and the greater community. We have received SO many donations of clothing, we ask that no more clothing be donated during this school year as we have reached our limit -THANK YOU COMMUNITY, YOU ARE AWESOME!!! However, we STILL have some needed items, so if you would like to help and donate, here are some items we could really use: children's underwear, boys, girls, all sizes. Hangers, ChapSticks, hair ties, clothing racks to hang clothes on, or plastic drawer systems to store socks, underwear, and shorts. Again, we offer our most sincere THANKS to you for donating and for considering donating the still needed items. GREAT THINGS HAPPEN AT ITHACA - EVERY DAY!
