West Chester Police Boost Marine Toys For Tots Drive

WEST CHESTER, PA — The West Chester Borough Police Department is helping out Toys For Tots again this holiday season, collecting toys to wrap up as gifts that make the holidays nicer for a lot of kids every year.

"WCPD is honored to assist the Marine Toys for Tots Foundation with their Toys for Tots program again this year!" the department said on social media.

New, unwrapped toys can be dropped off at the West Chester Police station at 401 E. Gay St. There is a drop box in the main lobby of the station.

The police department will also hold a drive-through dropoff on Saturday, Nov.28 between 11 a.m. and 1 p.m. in the rear parking lot of the police station.

"All you have to do is drive on in and hand us your donated gift. You don't have to get out of your car!" police said.

Toys For Tots is a national organization that helps the 15 million kids living at or below the poverty level in the U.S. Online donations can be made here.
