'Dine & Donate' to Help PD's Christmas Toy Drive

Meet Santa, and have lunch or dinner at Applebee's on Nov. 30; part of the proceeds benefit needy kids.

Help needy children in the Hackettstown area by joining in the Hackettstown's PBA#369 Christmas Toy Drive. It will beheld at Applebee’s Neighborhood Grill & Bar at 225 Mountain Ave in Hackettstown on Saturday, Nov. 30. 

You can help in two ways: donate toys and gifts to make a special holiday season for children in need. Or you have lunch or dinner at Applebee's on Nov. 30, give a “Dine to Donate” flyer to your server, and a portion of the restaurant tab will be donated to the Christmas Toy Drive.

The "Dine to Donate: flyer can be downloaded at the Hackettstown Police Department's Facebook page, or picked up at:
