"Our goal is to make sure every child has at least one toy to open during the holidays," said Susan Strange, store manager.
The Marine Corps Toys for Tots Foundation, started in 1947, has been successful in bringing thousands of smiles to needy children each year. Its mission is to ensure less fortunate children experience the joys of the holiday season.
