Participants are invited to drop off new, unwrapped toys, gift cards, or financial donations for the Toy Drive that benefits the SOS Caring for Community at Christmas program. With these donations, SOS creates a fully-stocked Toy Shop for families in need. SOS also provides grocery store gift cards so people can enjoy a meaningful holiday meal. When you bring in your donation, you also get to enjoy a complimentary breakfast buffet at Tigh-Na-Mara on December 4 from 6:30 am to 10 am.
There are three ways to join in on the magic this year:
a. The Main Event:
Join us on Wednesday, December 4, from 6:30 am to 10 am at the Walbran Ballroom and Cedars Restaurant for the Tigh-Na-Mara Toy Drive. Participants are invited to drop off new, unwrapped toys, gift cards, or monetary donations and enjoy a complimentary breakfast.
b. Drive-Through Option:
For those unable to attend the breakfast, a convenient drive-through option will be available at the entrance. Simply drop off your donation and receive a coffee and muffin to-go.
c. Pre-Event Option:
Avoid the crowds by participating early! From Monday, November 18 to Friday, November 29, between 7:30 am and 11:30 am, bring your donation (new unwrapped toy, gift card, or cash) to Cedars Restaurant and enjoy a complimentary breakfast. Reservations are highly recommended.
