“Today, we launched the City of Vaughan’s 15th annual Toy Drive in support of the CP24 CHUM Christmas Wish! I want to thank all the students, teachers and staff at St. Gregory the Great Catholic Academy here in Vaughan for helping us kick off this year’s campaign. From now until Friday, Dec. 13, you can drop off new, unwrapped toys at Vaughan City Hall, Vaughan community centres, fire stations and Vaughan Public Libraries. This initiative really goes beyond the joy of unwrapping presents – it’s about giving hope for a brighter tomorrow and putting a smile on a child’s face on Christmas morning. I know our residents understand the importance of giving back – of lending a helping hand when one is needed most. With your help, we can do our part to help make everyone’s holidays special.”
