Libraries host Annual Toy and Food Drive

McMaster’s Libraries are once again pleased to host this year’s Annual Toy and Food Drive in support of the Hamilton chapter of the Salvation Army’s Christmas Bureau.

The Bureau collects and distributes new toys, gift cards for older kids up to the age of 16, non-perishable food items, as well as toys and food for family pets, all going directly to their clients in need of assistance here in our community.

This year’s drive runs from November 23 to December 17, with drop-off boxes in each of the four campus Libraries.

Gift card donations may be left at the Service Desks of any of the Libraries.

Any donation for the drive is a big help, and is greatly appreciated!
