Last Christmas, Toys for Tots helped give 750,000 toys to local children in need. This year, FOX 5 has again teamed up with the organization, and we're hoping for a bigger, better turnout than ever!
FOX 5 Storm Team chief meteorologist Ken Cook paid a visit to the Toys for Tots Warehouse in Norcross, where there are plenty of toy collection boxes waiting to be filled.
You can help! Bring a new, unwrapped toy to your local Publix store, and drop it in the Toys for Tots collection box. We'll be collecting toys until December 22.
