Iroquois Memorial Hospital partners with Toys For Tots “bringing the joy of Christmas to less fortunate children”

WATSEKA, IL - Iroquois Memorial Hospital is partnering with The Marine Toys for Tots Foundation again this year by placing toy collection boxes at the hospital’s main entrance, the Iroquois Regional Health Center and the Gilman, Milford, St. Anne, and Watseka clinics, now through December 4. To find the address of the IMH location in Illinois nearest you, please visit imhrh.org.

Toys for Tots is an international not for profit organization. New items such as books and toys that are donated help give children a message of hope at Christmas. Monetary donations are also accepted. Toys for Tots in Iroquois County also partners with the Watseka Park District and “Food From the Heart”, who accepts food donations for a Christmas Dinner the day of the toy distribution.

All proceeds benefit families in Iroquois County. Last year’s campaign had over 4,000 toys distributed to children from newborn to age 11. Families in need can fill out an application for the toys online at www.ToysForTots.org.

The campaign in Iroquois County provides a ray of hope for the future. For more information or any questions, please contact Bill Nutter, Iroquois County Toys for Tots Coordinator, at 815.471.0129.
