News : G & G toy drive a success again this year

Vinton Today recently received this message from G & G auto arts store: "Once again it looks like Santa will be very good to all of the Benton County children. We just began our annual Toy Drive and already a very generous "elf" donated $250." Today (Friday) G & G staff will deliver a truckload of toys to the local Angel Tree Christmas program for distribution to needy area families. Thanks to the generosity of G & G customers and friends, children will enjoy a bicycle and even a helicopter they can fly themselves -- and many other toys, dolls and other gifts -- this year. Customers at Farmer Savings Bank and US Bank have also been very generous, taking home cards with children's name and ages and returning gifts to the bank for distribution via the Angel Tree program.
