Toy/Book Distribution

30 years ago, encouraged by Dottie McRae, Diane Meixell,  Martha Barrick, and a few friends assisted with the Eastern Union County Supplemental Food Bank in developing the Holiday distribution of Toys and Books.  In 1996, the Toy/Book drive merged with Coldwell Banker Penn One Real Estate and this team now works together with the Eastern Union County Supplemental Food Bank to organize the toy drive for needy families in our area.  Every child registered with the Eastern Union County Supplemental Food Program received at least two toys and a book for Christmas/Holiday celebrations.  After buying toys throughout the year, along with a gift exchange within the office and many generous donations from friends and clients, Coldwell Banker Penn One Real Estate was able to help 257 children from the ages of birth to 18 years old have a Christmas. “This has been a cause that we have been diligently supporting for the past 20 years. It is important to us that every child has a magical Christmas/Holiday and this is one way to ensure this endeavor,” says Martha Barrick, Broker/ Owner. If you have interest in donating or assisting with this excellent cause please contact Coldwell Banker Penn One at 570-524-7500.
