Members of the Marine Corps League Yankee Detachment #255 collected Toys for Tots donation boxes in December throughout Bronx County and consolidated those items for pick up at American Legion Post #620. Marines from 6th Communication Battalion made the final pick up prior to toy  distribution. Many thanks to those that contributed their time and effort into making 2019 Toys for Toys happen. More than 800 toys were collected from contributions throughout the local area for children in need this holiday season.
