Capitol Cab begins annual Toys For Tots campaign Friday
A local holiday donation drive giving to Toys For Tots kicked off on Black Friday, Nov. 23 through Capitol Cab in Carson City.
Cab driver Mark Shepler organized the annual toy drive five years ago through Capitol Cab, partnering with the Ron Wood Family Resource Center in Carson City to provide toys and Christmas joy to area children in need through the U.S. Marine Corps' Toys For Tots campaign.
"Myself and my co-workers simply wanted to give back to the wonderful people of Carson City," Shepler said, "and helping to make sure that no child in Carson gets missed by Santa."
Cab drivers take primarily cash donations, but also accept new toy donations. Toys are purchased with cash donations and delivered to the Ron Wood Family Resource Center for distribution to children in need.
The drive is happening now through Monday, Dec. 17.
