To All,
As you may know we are currently running the biggest toy drive in our 11 year history and this year the toys will go to the victims of Sandy.
We are reaching out to schools and businesses both locally and nationwide with our appeal.
We estimate that we will have thousands of toys available.
If you would like to get involved please click the link below.
In order to make these toys available to all the victims we have opened a toy store at
3948 Amboy Road
Thanks to the generosity of the Amalgamated Transit Union 726 who are
loaning us the location We will need volunteers to staff the store. Please spread the word....
The toys will be available to any family impacted by Sandy (they will need to provide a FEMA # and proof of address in an impacted area)
The store will be open Noon to 7:00 PM seven days a week through 12/24
The store will be staffed by volunteers.
We will be partnering with Senator Lanza in this effort and hope to get other elected officials and organizations involved.
Please let me know if you would like to be involved.
We will also arrange delivery to families that can’t make it to the store.
