As the Woman's Club has done for many years, in conjunction with The Children's Connection, we are having our traditional Holiday Toy Drive for children who are neglected, abused and undergoing difficult times. Members are being asked to bring NEW UNWRAPPED gifts, as well as gift cards, cash and checks, at November's Club Day luncheon and throughout the month of November. There is a drop off box outside the office next to the grandfather clock.
Favorite requests are: infant toys and clothing, Fisher-Price, Playskool and similar sturdy toys, dolls (all sizes), Disney items, balls, trucks, remote control cars and batteries, sports equipment, hand-held video games and batteries. Suggestions for older children are: gift certificates to Kohl's, Target, Bobs, Old Navy, Barnes and Noble; sweatshirts, sweaters, hats, cosmetics, manicure kits.
Checks should be made out to The Children's Connection - and given to Colleen in the office. Your check should contain your name, address and a reference to the WWC. We also accept rolls or packages of gift wrap along with ribbons and/or bows.
The Holiday Toy Drive is held well in advance of Christmas in order for the participating agencies to have time to distribute the gifts to approximately 3000 children in surrounding communities.
Thank you for your generosity.
