Over the next several weeks, volunteers will be working hard to gather donations and put together an exciting event.

The campaign is being led by Former Marine Corps Sgt. Jason Brown.
“There is no greater joy in life than watching a child smile. When the community comes together to donate toys, everything stays local and puts a smile on the face of a child here in our area. Any businesses or community members that want to get involved; we would love to have your support. last year we were able to provide hope and a Christmas to 1,818 kids,” said Sgt Brown.
