"We are always overwhelmed by the amount of support we receive from the community, especially during the holiday season," said Hanover Township Supervisor Brian P. McGuire. "Last year, 2,103 children were able to receive gifts for the holidays with the help of this program."

The Toy Drive Program allows supporters to purchase toys for any gender and age group up to 15 years old.

Sponsor-A-Family contributors select a family size and provide gifts for all children; adults are optional.

For questions or to sponsor-a-family, contact the Hanover Township Astor Avenue Community Center at (630) 540-9085.
