Feel Good Story: Community Makes Annual Toy Drive a Success
Posted on by Shavaun in Feel Good Story

5 Star Media’s Annual Toy Drive was  a success, and that’s all thanks to the members of our community right here in and around Beaver Country.

The Toy Drive, stationed in front of Walmart on Wilma Rudolph Blvd, collected over 1,200 toys for babies, toddlers, kids, pre-teens and teens, as well as $1,000 in monetary gifts for several charities that help our own area children.

Non-profit partners in our community that will be receiving the generous gifts are:

  • Sanctuary
  • Centerstone
  • Crisis 211
  • Flourishing Families
  • Big Brothers
  • Fort Campbell USO
  • Fisher House

Check out PHOTOS from this year’s Toy Drive on ClarksvilleNow.com.

Special thanks to our sponsors: Amity Salon, Grace Dental, Cornerstone Financial Credit Union, and Cowboy Dan’s Trading Post and Pawn.
