Southland neighbors are invited to share the Christmas spirit by donating new, unwrapped toys in the beautifully decorated main lobby of the Franciscan Medical Pavilion, located at 3700 W. 203rd St., Olympia Fields.

To make the afternoon even more magical, guests who drop off a toy will have the opportunity to meet Santa and Mrs. Claus and snap festive holiday photos.
