But wait – there’s more!
In addition, AdClub WNC will be hosting our annual Toy Drive during this event, in support of The Saint Nicholas Project, an initiative hosted by Eblen Charities. They collect toys for all age groups, and ask that toys be new and unwrapped.
The Saint Nicholas Project provides Christmas gifts, clothes, food, and other items to children and families in our community to help ensure that their Holidays are a bit brighter and provide hope for the coming year.
If you are able to donate a toy, we encourage you to bring one of your favorite Characters!
