APRO’s third annual Toys for Tots drive is off and running. Once again we have joined forces with the Marines and the Toys for Tots Foundation to supply toys to the needy and under privileged children during the holiday season.
Over the last year two years APRO members and local citizens showed their big hearts and community spirit by raising over 1500 toys for this great cause. This year APRO’s goal is to raise over 1500 new, unwrapped toys from November 28 th through December 17 th. Collected toys and donations will be forwarded to the local Toys for Tots coordinator for distribution and new toys are urgently needed for this cause.
Our Toys forTots Holiday Launch Mixer and Annual Holiday Party have already taken us more than half way to our goal. If you didn’t make the launch party there are other ways to get involved. If you prefer to mail in a donation, send your check or money order to:
