Summary:
Whether some Montgomery County children have a happy holiday will depend on the kindness of strangers, especially in these hard economic times. To ensure those less fortunate children are not forgotten, For Love of Children (FLOC), a not-for-profit group is collecting new, unwrapped toys and gifts. The toys and gifts will be distributed to children currently being served by the Children Services Division of Montgomery County Department of Job and Family Services.
Suggested new toys and gifts include handheld games, dolls, educational toys, infant items, books, sports equipment and apparel, cameras and DVD plays. Gift cards along with monetary donations are also accepted at the Haines Children's Center, 3304 N. Main St., Dayton.
Donations of new, unwrapped toys and gifts can be made now through December 20 at all Dayton-area US Bank and Fifth Third branches; State Farm Insurance, 6571 Brandt Pike in Huber Heights and Time Warner Media Sales, 8087 Washington Village Dr., Dayton. State Farm and Dyer, Garofalo, Mann and Schultz are challenging other businesses to donate to Christmas for Kids as well.
Christmas for Kids historically provides toys and gifts to over 2,000 children. For more information call 224-KIDS.
