Easter Basket Drive
Friendly Center offers the chance to make Easter a little brighter for children in the community through the giving of Easter Baskets. The goal is to collect 800 baskets. Friendly Center distributes to children from all over Orange County. You can help by scheduling a drop-off appointment to bring your assembled Easter baskets on collection day. These will be distributed on Wednesday, April 1st, 2026.
ALL DROP-OFFS ARE BY APPOINTMENT ONLY
Drop-offs will start on March 30th. Be sure to sign-up quickly before all available times are taken.
