A Festive Celebration of Giving
The Krewe of Iris, in partnership with Gayle Benson, is set to host the 10th Annual Sideline Pass Holiday Toy & Gift Drive. This momentous event will take place at the Saints Practice Facility in Metairie, offering a unique opportunity for community members to experience the life of Saints and Pelicans players while contributing to a worthy cause.
The drive aims to spread holiday cheer by collecting toys and gifts for those in need. Attendees can participate by bringing a new, unwrapped toy or gift along with a $10 admission fee. For those who prefer, there's an option to make an additional donation, allowing the organizers to handle the shopping or to ship items directly from the event's Amazon wishlist.
