The Salvation Army's Angel Giving Tree program and the U.S. Marine Corps' Toys for Tots are accepting donations at locations in Cerritos.
CERRITOS, CA — The city is partnering with the Salvation Army and U.S. Marine Corps programs to collect holiday gifts for children.
Through the Salvation Army's Angel Giving Tree program, donors can select tags at the Cerritos Senior Center through Nov. 20, and shop for gifts for children from infancy to 12 years old. Each tag lists a child’s age, gender, clothing size and toy request.
Gifts must be returned with the original tag to the senior center by Dec. 4.
