Carolyn's Community Toy DriveHome & School is once again proud to support Carolyn’s annual toy drive.
Deadline to participate is December 13, 2024
Willingdon is participating in a Toy Drive once again this year and we are counting on our wonderful community to help bring smiles to these children’s faces during the holiday season! We are supporting Carolyn’s Community, a non for profit organization (also a Willingdon Mom) who has been running an annual Toy Drive for 22 years for our community. Please read the instructions carefully to see what is required for the two age groups.
This year, the toy drive will benefit over 4,000 children in need in 75 shelters and organizations.
