For years you have helped make Christmas special for kids, and we are asking you for your help once again.

The annual CHCH Christmas Miracle toy drive kicked off today. We at CHCH are teaming up with Eastgate Square and East Hamilton Optimists to bring kids in need a Christmas.

Charlie Manning of the East Hamilton Optimists reflected on Hamiltonians’ generosity. “We’ve been doing this for 41 years. Three years ago we brought in 6,000 toys, two years ago 8,000 toys and last year just under 10,000.”

Starting today, if you can, consider dropping off a new, unwrapped toy at CHCH or Eastgate Square. The CHCH Christmas Miracle toy drive runs until December 19th.
