The gift of play this holiday season can be assisted by donating an unwrapped toy for the Marine Toys for Tots Program. Drop-off boxes are available at the Montgomery Village Hall, 200 N. River Street and the Police Department, 10 Civic Center Drive. Donations may be dropped off by December 9 from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.. Toys for Tots asked that donors please refrain from donating stuffed animals. Unwrapped toys, games, boos, sports items, are helpful.
According to the Toys for Tots website: “The objectives of the Foundation are to help less fortunate children throughout the United States experience the joy of Christmas; to play an active role in the development of one of our nation’s most valuable resources, our children; to unite all members of local communities in a common cause for three months each year during the annual toy collection and distribution campaign; and to contribute to improving communities in the future.”
