Helping Hands continues to provide excellent assistance to Rockwall County and it is now time for their toy drive.  During the 2010 Christmas season Helping Hands provided toys for 1,295 children from 479 families.  It is easy to see that Helping Hands is going to need some help as this is a lot of toys. 

Children from infants to 16 years old whose parents are not able to provide Christmas gifts this season will receive gifts.  They will try to provide three gifts per child with a value of $15 - $30.  

Rockwall residents...please be generous and get out & about and donate to the Helping Hands Toy Drive for Christmas 2011.  Gifts should be new and unwrapped and appropriate for a children between the ages of 0 - 16 and can be dropped off at one of the many locations.  Please bring your gifts by Tuesday, December 13.

Barbara - toy drive is the best one can help with during this Christmas season. Just imagine the facial expression of a child receiving the gift. Priceless!

Hi Barbara - Just when you want to be cynical about the human race you blog about Tim Wolf, Helping Hands, etc.  There are so many good people and organizations.
