Santa is at 911 Gives Hope for the Holidays Toy Drive at the East Side Walmart until 3:30 PM on Saturday, December 7, 2013. He is excited about seeing all the kiddos and is taking orders!

You can also donate toys or other needed items. The toys we collect are distributed to St. Mary’s, Deaconess, Methodist in Henderson, the Evansville Psychiatric Children’s Hospital and the Ronald McDonald House. The hospital is the last place any child wants to be at Christmas, which is our prime motivation to make sure they have a great Christmas in spite of their circumstances.

We are accepting donations of new, unwrapped toys and cash as well. We will use the cash at various times over the weekend to shop in Wal-Mart and you will know that every dollar you donated help fill up that trailer!

Each hospital has provided a needs list which are all below. Any help you can give is greatly appreciated.
