(ROCKWALL/ROWLETT/ROYSE CITY, TX – October 26, 2015) Rest Haven Funeral Home’s locations in Rockwall, Rowlett and Royse City will again serve as donation/drop off sites for the U.S. Marine Corps Reserve Toys for Tots.
“It is a privilege for us to be part of the Toys for Tots campaign again this year,” said Dewayne Cain, President and Founder of Rest Haven. “We were humbled last year at the outpouring of donations from this community. We filled the back of two large cargo vans last year with the donations we collected for this really wonderful program.”
Cain said that he is proud to support the Marines and their Toys for Tots program and their goal to deliver, through a shiny new toy at Christmas, a message of hope to needy children. Each year the Dallas/FortWorth Toys for Tots organization collects toys and monetary donations from the D/FW area. The toys and funds are distributed to dozens of community agencies throughout the area to make sure they get directly to North Texas kids in need. Toys for Tots accepts new unwrapped toys for all ages. Toys for Tots does not accept realistic looking toy weapons, or gifts of food.
The drop off deadline is December 10th. The locations and times for the Rest Haven drop off sites are:
