Thank you to all who made our Toy Swap and Drive such a success

12/9/09 - By Anna Fader

Picture 56.pngLast weekend we had our toy swap. Thank you to all who came with your used toys and your new gifts. We had a great turn-out, had a great time and we were able to donate tons of new and used toys to Seneca Houses where the children from 96 homeless families will be getting gifts from Santa Claus at a holiday party thanks to our donations. I know that the generosity of our readers will make a huge difference for those children who have so little this holiday season.

I want to thank our partners, A Child Grows in Brooklyn, Kidville, Fresh Direct and Susie's Super Club for their time, efforts and generosity in making this event as successful as it was. Everyone felt good getting rid of some of their older toys, found some new-to-them things to take home and had a great time playing in the beautiful gyms of Kidville and making fun holiday crafts. I know that I, for one, was pleased to be a kid's event that didn't involve cupcakes and thought it was great that Fresh Direct provided terrific healthy snacks and apple cider. And, the oatmeal cookies from Susie's Supper Club were seriously to die for. Thank you all!

I also need to thank the Mommy Poppins elves, Desiree, Teresa and Amelia, for your amazing help during the event.

But the giving hasn't ended. We have some great promotions to offer from some of our partners:
