Donate Toys for Kids in Need!

We just heard from our friends at Big Brothers Big Sisters of Gainesville, who are hosting a holiday party for their program's children on Saturday (Dec. 12). It turns out they are having a hard time getting gift donations this year, and most of the participating children likely won’t receive gifts from anywhere else.

If you have (or are willing to purchase) a new, unwrapped toy for a child, you can drop it off at the Big Brothers Big Sisters office at 1155 NW 13th Street (near Applebee’s and Office Depot) by Friday night. Our favorite gift ideas include books, Gator gear and all things High School Musical and Hannah Montana. For a complete list of suggestions and more info, visit tinyurl.com/littlewish.
