Working together to save the lives of thousands of dogs and cats, guests are encouraged to bring gifts from anywhere to be wrapped by Esther Mooring and her team of volunteers in exchange for a small donation that supports Operation Kindness’ mission to care for homeless animals in a no-kill environment until each is adopted into a responsible home. Gifts do not need to be purchased from Barnes & Noble to be wrapped – guests may bring gifts from anywhere for gift-wrapping.

The Barnes & Noble Gift-Wrapping Event will take place beginning Nov. 27 and end on Dec. 24. Gift wrapping hours are between 10 a.m. and 7 p.m., except Sundays from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m.
