Toys for Tots kick-off

The campaign receives new toy donations by way of collection boxes around the area. Community members can find them at government buildings, schools, Chief Markets and other businesses throughout the area.

Toys are then given to the Salvation Army to distribute for Christmas. The campaign ends on Dec. 10.
