Meade Lexus Holiday Toy Drive to Bring Holiday Cheer to Local Children Fighting Cancer

Nov. 25, 2011 - PRLog -- UTICA, MI – Meade Lexus is proud to announce its participation in the 2011 Bottomless Toy Chest drive in support of local children fighting cancer.

Donations are now being accepted through December 12th at conveniently located Meade Lexus dealerships throughout Metro Detroit.  Appropriate donation suggestions include projects, games, and interactive toys for males and females between infancy and 20 years of age.  Donation restrictions include violent games, books or toys (plastic swords, guns, projectile toys, etc.), food, candy, and religious materials.  It is necessary that all donations are new and unused to eliminate possible health concerns.  

The Bottomless Toy Chest is a non-profit organization based in Birmingham, MI that is devoted to delivering toys and crafts to local hospitalized pediatric cancer patients. As a member of the local support system, they have been actively helping surrounding communities and children since their founding in 2008.  Donations will be delivered to children at local hospitals, including Beaumont, St. John’s, and the DMC Children’s Hospital of Michigan.

Additionally, providing gifts to children facing adversity this holiday season will do more than furnish them with a toy; it will help raise their spirits and empower them to keep fighting through this difficult time.  Together with Meade Lexus, local communities can help bring holiday cheer to those who could benefit from it the most.

Drop-Off Locations are located at Meade Lexus of Lakeside (45001 Northpointe Blvd, Utica, MI 48315) and Meade Lexus of Southfield (28300 Northwestern Hwy, Southfield, MI 48034).  Donations will continue to be accepted until 9 p.m. on December 12th, 2011.
