Salvation Army Makes Plea For Toy Donations

The Salvation Army needs your help.

There is a shortage of gifts for certain age groups in this year's Gift of Christmas campaign.

Captain Nancy Braye says they are in need of items for ages 8-12 specifically.

"There are also a couple of specific toy requests that we seem to see a lot of," says Braye. "We are short on LEGO or anything Paw Patrol."

Braye says this year when hamper registrations were done, they asked for the childs interests, and those were the top items requested.

Gifts can be dropped off over the weekend at Sarnia's three McDonald's locations, or by the tree near the customer service desk at Lambton Mall.

Distribution starts December 15.
