Expect traffic delays around Chicago’s WGN studios tomorrow morning as viewers will be driving up and dropping off toys as part of WGN Morning News Drive-Thru Toy Drive. Last year, viewers and companies donated over 25,000 toys.
The WGN Morning News Drive-Thru Toy Drive celebrates its 16th year tomorrow morning. Viewers can drive up and drop off a new, unwrapped toy at the studios of Tribune’s Chicago indie.
Last year, viewers and companies donated more than 25,000 toys.
All toys will be donated to the Chicago Park District and will be dispersed to Chicagoland children and families in need.
“We are incredibly excited to partner with WGN to help give toys and bring joy to children, whose families may be in need this holiday season,” said Michael P. Kelly, Chicago Park District’s CEO.
“Our most important goal is to put children first in all that we do, and the WGN Morning News Drive-Thru Toy Drive helps make that achievable.”
Here’s a Facebook video from last year’s toy drive.
