Oxford Patch, State Police to Hold Toy Drive Saturday

We at Oxford Patch want to help local initiatives to give Christmas toys to local children, and we're asking for the community's help.

The Oxford Patch and the Oxford Resident Trooper's Office will hold a toy drive for local children at  on Saturday. The school is located at 462 Oxford Road, or Route 67.

We are asking anyone with the means to do so to donate to the toy drive, which will run from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. in the school's parking lot. We are looking for new, unwrapped toys to donate to children through the state police toy drive.

said all of the toys will be donated to Oxford children only. He said people would be surprised at the amount of people in need of donations so they can give their children a nice Christmas.

Anyone who cannot make the toy drive on Saturday can drop off toys at the Oxford Resident Trooper's Office or at Troop A in Southbury.

Since this came up at the last minute, we are asking people to help us spread the word.

Any questions can be addressed to me, Paul Singley, Oxford Patch editor, at 646-241-6337 or at paul.singley@patch.com. Or you can call Semosky at 203-888-4353.

Will you donate to charity this year?
