Carson City Democrats Donate Funds to Toys for Tots
On Friday, December 18, 2020, the Carson City Democrats delivered $686 to Joyce Buckingham, coordinator at Ron Wood Family Center for the Carson City Toys for Tots program.
In recognition of the fact that many families in our community, especially those with children, are struggling in this holiday period, the Carson City Democrats conducted a blazingly fast appeal to its members to support a cash drive for the Toys For Tots program.
After just 10 days, Democrats raised $686 which will be used by Toys for Tots coordinator to buy approximately three times as many new toys for children than could be bought at retail prices. This support is in addition to the volunteer efforts of many Democrats at the Toys for Tots sorting facility as well as an Angel Tree for children a bit older than the toys stage in their young lives.
The holiday season can be difficult for vulnerable families any year but with the pandemic, many more in the community are struggling. The Democrats of Carson City are appreciative of our members who were able to help and encourage all members of the Carson City community to help others less fortunate in any way possible. Happy Holidays to all.
