I say we hunt down those needy kids
Normally I'd throw this over to the main announcement board but:Neighbors,
The US Marine Corps sponsors a toy give-away campaign every year for "needy" children in the community. To be eligible to receive toys, the US Marine Corps coordinator must receive a written request from the parent or social service representative. Distribution of the toys will begin on Monday, December 4th, at Boys and Girls Club (#14) at 4103 Benning Road, NE (202) 388-8197, (202) 388-8183
To request a toy: Fax the request to: (202) 433-2497 or Write: Toys for Tots, PO Box 3124, Washington, DC 20336
One can also apply online: www.toysfortots.org
The request must include: 1.) Child's Name, 2.) Address, 3.) Phone Number, 4.) Child's age, gender, 5.) A one toy wish. (doll, truck, car, ball etc)
For information email the Toys For Tots coordinator Johnny Noble Johnny.Noble @ USMC.Mil (202) 433-0116, (202) 433-0132
Please pass this information along to anyone whom you believe might be in need of it!
Best,

Okay last year there were some kids in the hood who got a not so great Christmas because there might have been some misunderstanding about how one non-profit's toy program worked. Let's not have a repeat of that. I say we hunt down the needy kids of the hood, and hook 'em up with the Toys for Tots so that no kid (unless their guardians or parents don't do Christmas) goes with out a touch of Christmas.
