Bullard sets Dec. 22 deadline for Toys for Tots dropoffs

Wednesday, Dec. 22, is the deadline to drop off items at Coldwell Banker Bullard Realty offices for the annual U. S. Marine Corps Reserve “Toys for Tots” campaign.

This is the 57th annual “Toys for Tots” drive, and this is the 23nd year that Coldwell Banker Bullard has participated in the effort, which began Nov. 22.

The real estate company’s offices are serving only as collection points. Coldwell Banker Bullard does not distribute toys. This is done through local churches, local Department of Family and Children Services offices, or the Marines.

Area residents wanting to contribute can drop off a new, unwrapped toy at a Coldwell Banker Bullard office or one of the other collection points, and the Marines will do the rest, distributing the toys to needy children through local charitable organizations. The Web address for the Atlanta area campaign is www.atlantatoysfortots.com.

For those preferring to contribute money to the campaign, a check made out to “Toys for Tots” will be accepted.

Coldwell Banker Bullard offices are located at 238 Stockbridge Rd., Jonesboro; 4295 Jodeco Rd., McDonough; 658 West Third Street, Jackson; 1968-A Hwy. 54 West, Fayetteville (just outside the eastern city limits of Peachtree City); on Hwy. 34 East, Newnan (just west of the Thomas Crossroads intersection); and 122-A South 13th St. in Griffin. There are two collections points in Conyers, the Coldwell Banker Bullard office at 1070 Iris Dr. SW and the office of an affiliated company, Coldwell Banker American Land Mart, at 889 Commerce Dr. (Ste. A).

The “Toys for Tots” campaign has grown from a small project in the Los Angeles area to a nationwide effort. The campaign has the support of a wide array of other organizations, groups, committees, local businesses, and national corporations.
