Remember the best gift you ever received? Give it back to the world, and you're sure to feel all warm and happy inside.

What was the best gift that you ever received? A lava lamp? An old useless eight track tape? A singing mushroom alarm clock? Whatever it was, we hope you have the heart to give it back. We also hope someone wants it. But, at the end of the day it's the thought that counts, right? Donate that fond memory gift for one of the kids at the local Santa Monica Police Activities League (PAL). Drop off an unwrapped gift for a child ages 6-17. Donations accepted at the Winterlit Gift Wrap Station (1400 Block of the Third Street Promenade), Santa Monica Place Guest Services on level 2 and at 15 Santa Monica Starbucks locations.
