Toys for Tots collection continues this week

You can help put toys under a child’s Christmas tree, right here in Manchester. The Manchester Township Fire Department and the Dutchmen Firefighters Association are running their annual Toys for Tots campaign. They are collecting toys until Friday, December 17th. As usual, all the toys collected will remain in the Manchester area.

Bring your new, unwrapped toys to any of the following collection sites: Comerica Bank, Old National Bank, Manchester True Value Hardware, Ash Auto, Manchester District Library, Linda’s Diner and the Manchester Township Office.

Anyone that is in need of toys can call the Manchester Township Fire Department business line at 734-428-9439 and leave a message; their call will be returned to set up a time.

Jeff Mann, coordinator of Manchester’s Toys for Tots stated, “We couldn’t do this without all the generous donations from the community and all the drop off locations.”

For as little as $1 a month, you can keep Manchester-focused news coverage alive.
