Members of the Phi Theta Kappa Honor society chapter at Hudson Valley Community College will host a drive-thru, contact-free toy donation event from noon to 4 p.m. on Saturday, Dec. 12 on the college’s main campus on Route 4 in Troy. All toys collected will be distributed through Toys for Tots, an annual community initiative that has been coordinated by the U.S. Marine Corps Reserve since 1947.
Donors should:
- bring only new, unwrapped toys.
- enter campus on North Drive and proceed to B-1 Parking Lot in front of the BTC main entrance.
- stay in their vehicles; PTK members will remove the toys from all vehicles.
- wear a mask.
