EUGENE, Ore. – With just one more week until distribution, the Lane County Toys For Tots is desperate for donations. Previously the program was run by a Marine Corps Reserve Unit that continues to serve the metro Atlanta area.
Official groups also swung by, including the Dodge County Sheriff’s Department with a trailer full of toys. “We only make donations for families in Broome County, and a year ago it was about 1,400 families, so about 3,000 children we provided presents for, for Christmas”, said JC Police Dept. Officer Jody Kennedy.
Catherine Mayo took her grandchildren, Evie, 5, and Connor, 8, to Kohl’s Saturday morning to select toys to donate. Dunkin’ Donuts’ support exemplifies the true spirit of the season.
