The Hope Center in Albion Toys for Tots has officially begun. Sign-ups will begin in November. With inflation being high and toy prices going higher please consider donating a toy or a monetary donation to keep this program going. Last year more than 1600 children in Southern Illinois were blessed.
Toys for Tots drop off boxes are located at Prairie Antique Mall, Bobe’s Pizza, First Baptist Church, Little Prairie Christian Church and Dollar General in Albion and also at Bare’s Flooring in Fairfield. The Hope Center has partnered with over 20 Dollar General Stores in Southern Illinois. Toys will remain in the county donated to. Some of the places toys and books have been donated to over the last 14 years are:
Schools in Albion, West Salem, Grayville, Carmi, Fairfield and Mt Carmel, The Baptist Childrens Home, Elks, Wadi, local fire departments, Illinois State Police, Hospitals, Angel Tree Prison Ministries and a few more locations. If you would like a drop off box for toys or a money box , contact Rachel Vaughan at 6182403213 or Steve Smith at 6184452065.
