This year I participated in the annual Toys for Tots Christmas toy drive at work. The other person who helped me organize and recruit people for donations retired earlier in the year. She did a lot to encourage people to donate in one of the offices we collect from.
Donations were down slightly overall but up in one of the three offices I collect from. All in all it was a good year for us, however, when we dropped off to the USMC Reserve Center in Hialeah, they said that collections had been slow coming. Maybe it was just that we collected a week earlier than usual.
Like I said, it wasn't a bad year. We can't break personal records every year. I'm sure we'll have more next year.
