The Holiday Gift Drive will be held from 10:00 to 2:00 p.m. on Saturday, December 6, at Wheaton Bank & Trust, 211 S. Wheaton Avenue in Wheaton, IL.

For the second year volunteers from the accounting firm and the bank will be on hand to accept donations from the public that will benefit young parents and their children. Teen Parent Connection is in need of the following for the Holiday Gift Drive:

  • Toys for children infant through 3 years old
  • Supplies for the Parents’ Pantry (diapers, formula, baby wipes, etc.)
  • Gift cards to Toys-R-Us, Target, etc. (denominations of $25 preferred)

“We are excited to continue this tradition of working with our neighbors at Wheaton Bank & Trust to support the Holiday Gift Drive for Teen Parent Connection,” said Mike Moyski, CPA, one of the partners at Mathieson, Moyski, Austin & Co. “Our people enjoy coming together as a team to make a difference with young parents in our community.”
