Toy Collection Drive Underway At Moorestown Mall

MOORESTOWN, NJ - The Burlington County Sheriff’s Department’s 23rd annual Toy Drive is now underway through Friday, Dec. 16, Burlington County Sheriff Jean Stanfield announced. Moorestown residents can make their donations at the following locations:

• Boscov’s; Rt. 38 Moorestown/Moorestown Mall 08057
• Burlington County - County Corner; Rt. 38 Moorestown/Moorestown Mall 08057

After the drive, Sheriff’s Officers will gather up the bins, and return them to the County Complex. From there, human service agencies work with the Sheriff’s Department to distribute the donations to local children. Agencies include the Division of Child Protection and Permanency, Oaks Integrated Care, Catholic Charities, Christian Caring Center, Providence House, Sisterhood in Burlington City, Servicios Latinos, Foster and Adoptive Family Services and House of God in Delran.

“It has been a privilege of mine to host this annual toy drive for the past 23 years,” Stanfield said. “We always receive a wonderful response to the drive. Last year, approximately 1,200 toys were collected. The holidays are a special time for everyone and through the generosity of all of our volunteers and the community, we can make it a joyous time for those less fortunate. It has been incredible to witness the County come together year after year and make this all possible.”
