During the Naperville Marines Ball on Nov. 10, Toys for Tots were collected.

Look for Toys for Tots posters and logos all around town that identify other Toys for Tots Collection sites such as the one at First Community Financial Bank in Naperville Plaza.

Most collection sites request donations by Dec. 16, 2016,  to give the Marines Corps Reservists time to collect and sort the toys well in advance of the Christmas holiday.

Thanks for all unwrapped toy gifts, large and small!
