The organization plans to distribute the donated toys at local schools to children and families in need.

“We’re doing this to help our community and to make Christmas a little brighter for some kids,” Hunt said. “We want to give back and help as many people as we can to have a blessed Christmas.”

In addition to the toy drive, Patriot Ambulance EMS will distribute 15 Christmas dinners, complete with turkey and all the trimmings.
