December, 2013
Hope for Children Foundation organized a toy drive for the holiday season. A few businesses within the local area were kind enough to offer their location as a drop off point. They include: Wine Academy Superstores, Dr. Jay Gohel, Junction Cleaners, Dr. Santiago, Slaters Deli, Community Appliance, Accents Nail, Eagan and Associates, Ivy Rehab, Runners High and Middletown Arts Center. Through all these locations we were able to collect enough toys to assist 76 families in total across the Middletown school district. Primarily coast guard families from Sandy hook who attend Navesink ES, Thorne MS, Port Monmouth school, and HS North. In addition, toys that were left over were then given to help Highlands school district with their toy drive.
