Toys for Tots’ 2023 goal is to collect 120,000 toys. During its 2022 campaign, it collected nearly 70,000 toys that were delivered to more than 43,000 children across the Chicagoland area.
WLS, the ABC O&O in Chicago, held its annual “Stuff the Truck” campaign to make the holiday wishes come true for children in need by supporting the Marine Corps Reserve Chicago Toys for Tots.
Viewers were encouraged to come out and “Stuff the Truck” at the Marine Core Warehouse on Friday, Dec. 8. Marines loaded up toy donations in their holly jolly military trucks to be sorted and later delivered to children in need. Some of Santa’s helpers will be on hand as well.
