Frequently Asked Questions:
Who are the families who get the gifts?
How will you distribute the gifts?
Gifts from the toy drive will be pooled to allow the parents to “shop” for items for their children. Gifts purchased from the Amazon wish list will go directly to families that requested specific items.
