The SOMSD Parenting Center and Rent Party are excited to announce the launch of their annual toy drive, aimed at supporting local families during the holiday season. Community members are encouraged to participate by making monetary donations, contributing items from a designated wish list, or dropping off new toys at any district elementary school.
This initiative runs until December 12, providing ample time for residents to show their generosity and help brighten the holidays for children in need. The toy drive is an opportunity for families to come together and support one another, fostering a spirit of community and kindness.
Organizers emphasize that every contribution, no matter how small, can make a significant difference in the lives of local children. By participating in this toy drive, you can help ensure that every child experiences the joy of receiving a gift this holiday season. Join in the effort to spread cheer and support those in our community who may be facing challenges.
