It's the season for giving!!! While many of us are celebrating the holiday season with our family and opening presents, there are many children in our community who will not be included due to certain difficulties. Toy drives are great ways to include these children and bring big smiles to their faces.
Listed below are several organizations seeking toys this winter (which we have worked with in the past):
Hudson County CASA Holiday Toy Drive {Deadline December 25}
