Each year, the Press Herald Toy Fund is helped by local businesses that donate their services to help get gifts into the hands of children in need.

They donate supplies, feed volunteers, and help transport toys and books around the state. And they do it behind the scenes without expecting anything in return.

Many of these businesses are among the Toy Fund’s most steadfast supporters and have been pitching in for many years. They are: Northeast Transport, DeRosier’s Freeport Pizza, Anthony’s Italian Kitchen in Portland, CVS Freeport, Amato’s Corporate, Subway on St. John Street in Portland, Trader Joe’s in Portland, Altrusa Portland, and Noyes Storage.

Meanwhile, the Toy Fund continues to accept donations – as it does year-round. Names of donors who don’t wish to be anonymous will continue to be published in periodic updates.
