Every year the Holiday Toy Drive brings together 220 neighbors in Mérida. I help organize it with 5 other volunteers, and this year our numbers are down. We need people for stewarding, first-aid support and clean-up. Shifts are four hours long and you can pick the one that suits you. Food and drinks are provided for all volunteers. It's a fun day for all ages, 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. Thank you so much.

  • Hang in there, Jorge. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Don't give up

    • Projects like this are what make a place worth living in. Thinking of Mérida.

      • take care. More neighborhoods should do this. I have a 12 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Greetings from Birmingham.

        • Rooting for you. Great idea, hope you get there. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. All the best.

          • Wishing you the best, Jorge. Gave what I could, wish it was more. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust.

            • Hope it all works out, Jorge. Hope you get there. Thinking of Mérida.

                It takes guts to ask. Well done. After 15 years in nursing I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Thinking of Mérida.

                • Hang in there, Jorge. Hope the build day goes well, wish I lived closer. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. God bless.

                  • So sorry you're going through this. Hope this works out for you. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Greetings from Wiesbaden!

                    • Shared it with a few friends. After 25 years in nursing I know how hard it's to ask for anything.

                        Sending love. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I have a 15 year old who wants to send good wishes too.
