As you know, for almost twenty years, I drop off Toys for Tots on my birthday. Since my transplant, this has been a more meaningful endeavor. I now drop off toys for all the kids in honor of my donor, Jacob.

Last year, because of your contributions to enhance my toy drive, I dropped off over three hundred toys. Thank you.

This year, I HAVE A GOAL! Since I will be celebrating 40 years of life, I want to bring over four hundred toys in honor of Jacob to kids in need of a happy holiday season.

Please help me reach this goal. Whether it means setting a donation box at your place of work, asking friends or school mates, or sending a direct donation via PayPal to dnikkitsf@aol.com; any contributions will help me purchase toys to reach my goal for my annual shopping spree for the kids.

I will need to purchase all toys by Tuesday, December 15th in order to deliver on the 16th to KARE 11 News.
