The Colonial Group will be lending a hand with this year’s Toys for Tots campaign to collect Christmas toys for needy children.

The annual campaign, organised by Coldwell Banker Bermuda Realty and the Coalition for the Protection of the Children, provides hundreds of toys to the Island’s young people.

Colonial will be accepting donations for the toy drive until December 2, and members of the public can drop off toys to be donated at Jardine House on Reid Street or at Coldwell Banker’s office on Par-la-Ville Road.

“It is a tragedy if some young people cannot feel the joy of receiving gifts at Christmas,” Alan Peacock, the Colonial Group president and CEO, said.

“We are delighted to be supporting this very worthwhile initiative and hope that our clients, as well as others, coming to our offices on Reid Street bring a toy to donate.”

Coldwell Banker’s Sarah Faiella said: “I am delighted that Colonial is helping this year. The more companies that provide support the better. It means that we will get more toys to benefit more children in need.”
