Parenting Center Annual Toy Drive of South Orange Maplewood School District

The Parenting Center of Maplewood South Orange School District hosts an Annual Holiday Toy Drive to benefit children in our schools who are eligible for free and reduced lunches as their parents live below the poverty line.
The Parenting Center volunteers collect donations of toys, arts and educational projects, books, gloves, jewelry and MP3 players for teens, basketballs, soccer balls and other sports items for children ages infancy through age 17.   The drive is completely run by volunteers and has benefited over 150 families each year for the last 13 years, and sometimes as many as 300-450 children.  Make a child happy.  Go to Babyland and make a donation in our collection box in their store.  Thank you Babyland!
