Dear [recipient's name]:

We at First Presbyterian Church are pleased to announce that we are once again doing a Christmas toy drive for children in our community this year. Please consider participating in this fun and rewarding event. Read on to get all the details.

Please purchase a toy worth about $20 for a boy or girl, and drop it off between December 1st and 16th at the church office. If you are interested in helping with gift wrapping, please sign up at the church office.

Thank you so much for your help. The children who receive the toys will truly be blessed this holiday season.
