As the school year ends, we award substantial college scholarships to students graduating from high school and to students moving on from local community colleges to complete their four-year degrees.
We are proud to invest in the futures of these impressive and deserving young people!
The 2019 Upper Division Scholarship application period is now open!
School Clothing Event
On November 3, 2018, ALGSD partnered with the Larry Himmel Neighborhood Foundation to provide school clothing for 50 low-income students at a local Target store. Each child received a gift card, and help from our volunteers to pick out school clothing. It was a fun event for all!
OSB Appreciation
From a family and a student at Darnell’s Charter School.
Thank you for all of your help and support. This really means a lot to myself and my family. Your staff here at the Target in College Grove have gone above and beyond.
Thank you so very much!
Thanks to you all!
BIG Remodel!
Our Chapter House is closed for a major remodel, and will reopen in early 2019. Watch for the Grand Reopening of our expanded and updated Thrift Shop, and come enjoy an even better shopping experience.
Treasure Bazaar
On Saturday March 24th, 2018 we held our 15th Annual “Treasure Bazaar.” This was our biggest fundraiser ever, raising funds for our philanthropic programs, most notably Operation School Bell®, by which we clothe over 3,000 San Diego area school children annually. Our Thrift Shop at 108 University Avenue in San Diego, is the grateful recipient of community donations throughout the year, and from those, we cull the “Treasures” that we offer at our big sale.
Our “Treasure Bazaar” spills out the backdoor of our shop into the parking lot on 1st Street. There we feature fine art and furniture, and continue indoors with fine and vintage jewelry, retro household items, crystal, fine linens, vintage clothing and accessories.
Don’t miss this year’s event! Check back here for dates.
