Less Fortunate Children to Smile this Christmas
Naples, North Port, FL (PRWEB) November 07, 2014 -- The Rx Care Pharmacy has joined the U.S. Marine Corps Reserve Toys for Tots program to bring smiles to less fortunate children this Christmas season.
November 3, 2014 marked the official start of the Toys for Tots holiday drive whose mission is to collect new, unwrapped toys, books and other gifts during the months of November and December and distribute those toys as Christmas gifts to needy children in the community.
Rx Care Pharmacies is volunteering to be a Toys for Tots drop off site and is encouraging the community to drop off gifts at any of the Rx Care Pharmacy stores in Florida. Pharmacies located at 13020 Livingston Rd St 8, Naples, FL 34102 and 13221 Tamiami Trail, North Port, FL 34287 have placed drop off boxes in their stores.
With a new toy at Christmas, a message of hope to the less fortunate will assist children in becoming responsible citizens and caring members of their community.
Lindsay Wolfe, Rx Care Pharmacist says the pharmacy is honored to be part of an initiative that provides happiness and hope to disadvantaged children. “Since its inception, the program has brought a tremendous difference in the life of children and Rx Care Pharmacy has joined the community in bringing smiles on children's faces,” Lindsay says.
Last year the Marine Corps fulfilled the holiday hopes and dreams of 6.8 million less fortunate children in 762 communities nationwide.
The campaign runs until December 16, 2014. Most needed items are for infants aged 0-2; boys aged 9-12 and girls 6-12. Least needed items are dolls, matchbox cars, games or toys ages 3-5, and stuffed animals.
