Summery Toy Drive for CT Children's Medical Center

Local Firm Shein Cohen Palmer is Organizing a Much Needed Summer Toy Drive for The Connecticut Childrens Medical Center

Avon, Connecticut

The Accounting & Bookkeeping Firm of Shein Cohen Palmer & Associates is organizing a summer toy drive to benefit The Connecticut Childrens Medical Center. Debra MacDonald, manager of small business services at Shein Cohen Palmer said she was recently in touch with a representative from the hospital and that the demand for toys is high in the summer as it is so far removed from the generous holiday season.

The toy drive is requesting new unwrapped gifts for children of all ages. There are collection boxes located in the lobby of 20 Tower Lane in Avon. Any more information or questions can be directed to Debra MacDonald of Shein Cohen Palmer & Associates.

Debra is also a member of The Farmington Valley BNI and has secured a donation to support the toy drive from the association which is a business minded networking group that meets weekly (Every Tuesday Morning at 7:00 am) in Avon. The group is currently recruiting new members in various business fields. In the past year the group has passed over $600,000 in business to one another.
