NY’s Annual Holiday Toy, Coat, School Supply Drive

This year has been difficult for more families than any time in recent memory. The holiday donation drive will benefit families in need across the state and runs through December 16th. Donations of new unwrapped toys, coats and school supplies are being sought to assist community-based organizations during the holiday giving season. Drop-off locations are set up around the State and COVID-19 protocols will be in place to ensure the safety of those dropping off donations.
