Sixty years ago, the wife of a Marine Corps Reserve officer handed her husband a hand-made doll and told him to give it to an organization that provided toys to poor children during the holidays. When he told her no such agency existed, she told him to start one. And so Toys for Tots was born.
Six decades later, that spirit of caring and giving is alive and well. Please join us this holiday season in delivering a message of hope
to needy children in our own community by donating a new, unwrapped toy
to the Sangamon County Chapter of Toys for Tots.
