This year’s Holiday season will no doubt be challenging to all of us. I hope you will be able to rejoice, and celebrate among your loved ones. Also, in the event you are looking for an opportunity to also help those less fortunate, I would like you to consider our yearly Toys-For-Tots drive. This year marks the 4th year we do it. My staff and I ask for your help to make this the very best year so far. The isolation from family and friends is particularly hard on children, and with many more families facing tough economic times due to the pandemic, a toy or two can make a big difference for a child. Toys play an important developmental role in children, yet some don’t have any. I am sure we can all remember that special toy we had growing up. Will you help us make that a reality for some of the many children that will go without toys this holiday season without this important drive? In consideration of the the pandemic, we are offering a ... read more
