Tthe Dana Point Woman’s Club focuses its fundraising efforts on one of Dana Point’s two elementary schools. This year, the club is sponsoring a book drive for Palisades Elementary School after focusing its efforts on RH Dana last year.

Dana Point Woman’s Club encourages residents to purchase books from Palisades’ Library Book Wish List on Amazon. Books may either be sent directly to Palisades Elementary or brought to the Community House during the club’s next meeting on Sept. 7.

During the meeting, the club will host Sharon Miller and Laura Casellas of South Coast Literacy Council and Palisades Principal Rebecca Bailey for a lunch and brief presentations.

In addition to the book drive, Dana Point Woman’s Club is also collecting food donations for Family Assistance Ministries. The club is asking residents to donate peanut butter and jam for a PB&J Drive.

Donations of books and/or peanut butter and jam can be dropped off at the Community House between 10 a.m. and noon. Boxes collecting donations will be on the patio off the side parking lot.

Email dpwc.oc@gmail.com for membership inquiries or questions about the donation drives.

The Community House is located at 24642 San Juan Avenue, Dana Point.
