BROADCAST TRANSCRIPT:
A Tallahassee foundation is gearing up for its annual toy drive to help children in poverty communities have a great Christmas. The Less Fortunate Still Matters Foundation gave out nearly 4,800 toys last year and hopes to match or exceed that number this year.
President Timothy Mosley says the foundation relies entirely on local business owners and private donations, with no grants.
"I've always said in life I wanna do what was not done for me for somebody else. My childhood and upbringings, it keeps me grounded and keeps me humble and it allows me to serve and do it at the best of my ability," Mosely says.
The toy drive event is December 14 from 10 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. at Jean Cox Stadium at the fairgrounds. Families will part in the stadium, get wristbands and tickets, then shop for toys. Children must be present to participate.
Donations are being collected until December 10. Below is the full list of drop off locations:
- Morning Star Storage; 5086 Tennessee Capital Blvd
- Canopy Road Cafe; 3196 Merchants Row Blvd
- El Jalisco; 3197 Merchants Row Blvd
- Camping World; 31300 Blue Star Highway, US-90
- Gandy Printers; 1800 S Monroe St,
