posted (December 2, 2004)

…it is an ambitious goal and one the Rotary Club is hoping to achieve with your help. The charity group is helping out the Salvation Army in their annual toy drive. Rotarian Eddy Bulwer says it is the least they or any Belizean could do for needy children.

Eddy Bulwer, Rotary Club
"We are appealing to the general public to donate either a new toy or shake out your toy box, talk to your kids and get some good used toys. We are not looking for ragged toys, we are looking for really nice toys that can be dropped at the many drop off centers we have set up and they will help spread some cheer this holiday season."

"I ask and I appeal to everybody throughout the length and breadth of Belize - if you coming to town to shop for Christmas: our drop off points are Brodies in downtown Belize City, Hofius, Sav-U Supermarket, Mirab, and A&R on the northern highway. If you don't see the drop-off barrel just ask any of the staff and they will point you to it and you can leave a toy there and it will bring a smile to child this year. It is in giving that we receive."

Toys will be collected until December 15th and they will be distributed on the 17th. The drop-off points are Brodies on Albert street, Hofius, Mirab, Sav-U, and A&R store.
