It is time for the annual US Marine Corps Reserve TOYS FOR TOTS drive and Discovery Depot is excited and proud to be a co-sponsor of this year's annual drive. We are in the process of collecting toys for local, needy children who might not otherwise have a Merry Christmas without our help.
Through the combined efforts of local businesses, the Department of Children's Services, the American Legion, and the Fraternal Order of Police, this program has helped several hundred children in Putnam and surrounding counties. We hope YOU will partner with Discovery Depot to make this a great time for these children.
We ask that you purchase new,unwrapped toys for children ages 0-17 and drop them off at Discovery Depot or if your organization has a large number of items we will be happy to come and pick them up. Individuals or a business can consider making a tax-deductible monetary donation. All of the monetary donations will be used to purchase toys/gifts for the children that benefit from TOYS FOR TOTS.
Please make your check payable to Toys for Tots and mail or drop off at:
Discovery Depot
15 W. Broad St.
Cookeville, TN 38501
(931)520-8697
Please be aware that we need time to collect, shop for, and distribute toys before December 21st...so the sooner you can help, the better.
I know there are many worthy causes to give to during the holidays. We would just ask that you please consider TOYS FOR TOTS. The special and unique aspect of our program is that all donations go to benefit local, needy children.
...every child deserves a little Christmas!
Sincerely,
Andy, Sherrie, & Tori Cannon
