Toys for Tots 2013

It's hard to believe it but it's that time of year and once again, WFTV 9 Family Connection and our partners- Central Florida Auto Dealers Assocation, Physicians United Plan, Stanley Steemer and Southeast Steel along with K92.3 are proud to support the USMC's long standing campaign of helping make sure children in our community have presents to open during the holidays. This campaign is driven by individuals and businesses who donate toys and money for the children.

There is a lot of important information for parents and businesses to know, so please make sure to check back often for updated registration information, a list of events and drop off locations and other ways you can get involved.
