The Salvation Army has announced the schedule for families to register their children for the annual Toy Shop program.

For more than 50 years, The Toy Shop program has ensured that local children receive toys for Christmas.

The program is targeted to low-income families in the local community, serving children ages 13 and under. The service area includes Hamilton and Clermont counties in Ohio, and Boone, Campbell and Kenton counties in Northern Kentucky.

“We have a passion for serving local families, and get such joy providing toys to children at Christmas,” stated Sarah Wagner, Director of Social Ministries at The Salvation Army. “Our long-standing tradition ensures that less-fortunate children in our community are provided for at Christmas. We’re very grateful to all those who help us with the program.”
