Weichert Accepting Toys For Drive

Company distributed nearly 22,000 toys last year.

Weichert has kicked off its 33rd annual toy drive and is asking you to help make it a success.

Members of the community are invited to drop off new, unwrapped toys at each of the company’s sales offices through Dec. 9. The toys will be delivered throughout the holidays in conjunction with local charities that assist financially and physically disadvantaged children.

Weichert employees at the company’s corporate headquarters in Morris Plains, as well as in other company locations throughout the United States, will also participate in the yearly community service event. To date, the annual toy drive has yielded hundreds of thousands of items for underprivileged children. Last year, nearly 22,000 toys were distributed to charitable and service organizations.
