Annual La Conner Kiwanis toy drive underway

The La Conner Kiwanis, in collaboration with the local Edward Jones office, has kicked off its annual toy drive, focusing on bringing joy to children in La Conner during the holiday season. A prominent Giving Tree is located at Edward Jones, where community members can choose tags representing specific needs of local families. This initiative encourages donations of unwrapped toys for the Forgotten Children’s Fund, which benefits families in La Conner and across Skagit County. The drive not only emphasizes the spirit of giving but also fosters a sense of community solidarity and support. Edward Jones operates from 8:30 a.

m. to 5 p. m. , Monday through Thursday, making it convenient for residents to drop off donations. The Kiwanis Club's efforts reflect the organization's commitment to positively impacting local families during the holidays.

Participation from community members is vital to the success of this initiative, ensuring that every child can experience the joy of receiving gifts. This collaborative effort aims to strengthen community ties while addressing the needs of those less fortunate.
