Twentynine Palms Food for Life and Reach Out Morongo Basin are partnering together to give free Christmas toys to children. Managing editor Tami Roleff explains who is eligible for the free toys and how to get on Santa’s good list…
To be put on Santa’s good list, parents in Twentynine Palms and Wonder Valley should call Reach Out Morongo Basin at 760-361-1410. Parents will need to provide their name, address, phone number, children’s names, and ages. The children must be 14 years old and younger and the toy give-away is limited to 300 children. The sign-up for free toys is from December 7 to December 18. Toys will be distributed at the Twentynine Palms Food for Life free annual Christmas dinner at Palms Baptist Church in Twentynine Palms, served from 3 to 5 p.m. on December 22. The meal is open to the public. Additionally, there will be a giveaway of gently-used clothes. For questions about volunteering at the dinner event, contact Food for Life Board President Kelly Schumacher at 760-819-3054.
