Assemblyman Scott Bendett (R,C-Sand Lake) is hosting a holiday toy drive from Nov. 27 to Dec. 8 for children and families in need this holiday season. This event will be a great opportunity for residents in the 107th Assembly District to spread some holiday cheer by donating new, unopened and unwrapped toys to those less fortunate. Donations can include board games, dolls, action figures, sports equipment, art supplies and more. At the conclusion of the drive, Bendett will take the collected donations and distribute them to Toys for Tots locations in our community.

“Donating toys to struggling friends, families and neighbors over the holidays is a great way to give back,” said Bendett. “We want nothing but the best for our children, but unfortunately, the current financial climate our state and country are facing this year makes saving money for Christmas presents that much more difficult. My hope with this drive is to encourage our communities to come together and give from the heart so everyone can wake up to a wonderful Christmas morning.”
