North Hempstead Kicks Off Toys For Tots Drive At 9 Locations

MANHASSET, NY — The Town of North Hempstead is bringing smiles to underprivileged children this holiday season.

They are partnering with Toys for Tots for this year's collection drive.

Residents are encouraged to drop off new, unwrapped toys at collection boxes placed in various town facilities through December 9.

"Every child deserves a present during the holidays, but unfortunately that’s not the reality for many families," Supervisor Jennifer DeSena said. "Please consider donating a toy this month. No gift you can receive feels better than the one you give in putting a smile on a young boy or girl’s face."

The drop-off locations are:

• Charles J. Fuschillo Park: Carle Road at Broadmoor Lane, Carle Place
• John D. Caemmerer Park: Wentworth Avenue, Albertson
• Clark Botanic Garden: 193 I.U. Willets Road, Albertson
