‘Tis the season for giving
Several Toys for Tots donation sites have been set up around Marine Corps Air Station Cherry Point. From October to December, individuals can drop off their new, unopened, and unwrapped gifts at sites found in the Main Exchange and the Fleet Readiness Center (FRC) East facility. Better hurry though, the last day to drop off toys is Dec. 13!
Even though it’s only three months, this window brings the local community together to achieve a common goal – help less fortunate children experience the joy of Christmas and send them a message of hope.
Online monetary donations can also be made at their website, https://www.toysfortots.org. If you have any questions, comments or concerns please contact the FRC East representatives or the MCAS Cherry Point representative for the Toys for Tots Campaign.
