CHOC Toy Drive
The spirit of the holiday season is underway and it's time for our 13th Annual Toy Drive starting Monday, November 19th and ending Friday, December 14th. This event is in its sixth year at North Tustin and is part of our character development program. We are asking all our families to help us by donating a toy for a boy or girl who is in CHOC - Children's Hospital of Orange County. These children would truly benefit from receiving a special gift on Christmas morning and all year long.
Due to infection control and in order to protect the patients, the toys MUST be NEW and UNWRAPPED. The toys will be picked up at school by Judy Coderre from our business office, and her friends from the Orange Coast Harley Davidson's Chapter. They will come to the North Tustin Campus on Friday, November 14th, from 11:30-12:00 pm by motorcycles to pick up the toys.
If you would like to donate a toy for a patient at CHOC, please drop it off in your child's classroom Toy Drive Box beginning on Monday, November 19th until December 14th. Thank you in advance for your kindness and generosity. For more information about CHOC please see website:
www.choc.org or call the Child Life Department (714) 532-8473.
