The holidays are upon us. Thanksgiving is next week and who can walk into a store without seeing the decorated trees, twinkling lights and shiny Christmas wrapping paper. This year Hong Kong Springs has partnered with Lighthouse of Oakland County to bring a smile to a child at Christmastime by hosting a toy drive.
This has been a rough year as we all know economy wise. Many middle class families who have always had a roof over their heads, food on their tables and presents under their trees are facing a bleak Christmas this year. Indeed having a home is essential and food as well but don’t underestimate the joy and smiles a simple toy can bring to a child on Christmas morning. The toys do not have to be expensive…a coloring book, a box of crayons, a board game. Any and all will bring happiness to a child this year at Christmas.
All donations should be in by December 18, 2009. If you would like to know more about Lighthouse of Oakland County please visit their website at: www.lighthouseoakland.org
