branch to the items donated. Not only do we want to ensure that you are
properly thanked for your generous contributions but we also take great
pride in the talent of our people and wish to share your wordfame with the
Known World!
CAUTION: Due to allergy and heath concerns please avoid heavily
scented items such as potpourri, used or second hand items, homemade food or
beverage products that expire, and anything potentially sticky, spoilable or
spillable. Items that are particularly fragile, very large or heavy, or that
require special handling should be discussed with the Royal Largesse
Coordinators. Remember that items will sometimes be travelling, perhaps even
great distances, both to and from events. Therefore size, weight, and
breakability must be considered.
If you have an idea of a donation that you would like to make but
are unsure of its usability, please contact the Royal Largesse Coordinators.
