35 volunteers for the Holiday Toy Drive in Calgary
We're short of hands for the Holiday Toy Drive; can you spare a morning?
🇨🇦 Calgary, Alberta, Canada183 views
Every year the Holiday Toy Drive brings together 516 neighbors in Calgary. I help organize it with 10 other volunteers, and this year our numbers are down.
We need people for registration, sorting donations and carrying boxes. Shifts are two to three hours long and you can pick the one that suits you. Food and drinks are provided for all volunteers.
It's a family-friendly day, and our goal is to keep it free. No experience is necessary - we'll brief everyone at the start of the day.
If you can come with a friend, even better. Please say in the comments which shift works for you.
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

So sorry you're going through this, Louise. Hope this works out for you. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Take care
it takes guts to ask. Well done. My neighbor had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. God bless.
Gave what I could, wish it was more. We're a small family in Peoria but we're thinking of you. Blessings
Sending strength, Louise. It takes guts to ask. Well done.
You're not alone, Louise. More neighborhoods should do this. God bless
