Annual toy drive brings joy to local children
For the 28th year, members of the RE middle school community collected toys for children at several churches in Coconut Grove, with each advisory filling a huge gift bag with stuffed animals, dolls, books, sports equipment and requested items for particular children. On December 18, faculty and staff delivered the bags and the myriad overflow items – bicycles and other large gifts – to Christ Episcopal Church, which shared the items with Macedonia Baptist Church and others, bringing many surprises and smiles.
