25 Days Of Holiday Volunteering — Day 1: Open Door Holiday Toy Drive

HUDSON VALLEY, NY — 'Tis the season for giving back to your community. There are a number of ways that you and your family can help others through the holidays.

Every day through Christmas, Patch will be highlighting a way you can provide compassion and resources to those in need.

Volunteer New York! makes it easy to find ways to help — through donations, supporting nonprofits and even volunteering from home.

Today’s opportunity is the Open Door Family Medical Center Holiday Toy Drive.

For over 50 years, the Open Door Family Medical Center has distributed toys to children in the community. Volunteers are needed to help continue this holiday tradition by hosting their own toy drive with family, friends, and colleagues. The Holiday Toy Drive is sustained entirely through community donations. With help from volunteers, the Open Door Family Medical Center will be able to bring holiday cheer in the form of over 3,500 toys, books, stocking stuffers, and gifts for local families. Express interest below for more information and to receive a Holiday Tool Kit for hosting your own holiday toy drive! This project requires volunteers to complete a volunteer application.
