Admittedly, our Toy Drive at Shamrock Lodge is receiving more attention that I had originally anticipated! Toys are now coming from all directions and the office is beginning to look like the toy factory at the North Pole. As well as toys pouring in from locals or arriving by mail from generous, kind souls we have also received several cash donations by email transfers and cheques to be able to purchase toys locally. (aka: win/win) So far we are up to $600.00 and it keeps coming in!!
I’m excited to be able to hit the toy store soon and make this toy box disappear under a mound of gifts for the kids. Giving back has really put me into the Christmas spirit this year and increased my level of child-like anticipation for the big day. Knowing that we have helped to put a smile on a child’s face on Christmas morning is priceless. I want to feel like an elf every year!!
That’s pretty good. The best are when some kids get too many toys, and don’t get around to opening some. Then you can donate them!
I like it! Every toy counts to someone who may not get one!
Right!
Christmas is about kids. To witness this undertaking warms my soul. I trust it swells your heart.
