Where in MetroWest can you drop off Toys for Tots donations? Here's a list
The U.S. Marine Corps is once again collecting toys as part of its Toys for Tots campaign.
The campaign runs through Dec. 10. It seeks new, unopened and non-violent toys for both boys and girls. Toys will be donated to children in need.
This year, there is a particular need for toys for children of each gender between 0 and 2 years old and 6-12 years old.
Most MetroWest police and fire departments have Toys for Tots drop-off boxes (contact them before going), as do several other businesses and Massachusetts State Police headquarters in Framingham and several of the barracks throughout the state.
