Getting your Trinity Audio player ready...

By Sarah Brown – Managing Editor

Toys for Tots and Adopt an Angel joined forces several years ago in order to create one large toy drive for the children of Cordele and Crisp County. Prevent Child Abuse Crisp, The Gateway Center, GSP, Cordele Police Department and Crisp County Sheriff’s Office worked together along with many businesses in the community to collect toys. Businesses had boxes available for toy drop off, and the GSP held a toy drive down 16th in Cordele earlier in December. 

Fish Baptist Church Brotherhood and Arabi Feed and Grain donated 45 bikes, and hope to continue to double their donations over the coming years with help from surrounding churches.

This year the toy drive will be helping nearly 900 children in our community all thanks to the generosity of those who donated.
