The toys that are wrapped will be distributed to children in need around St. Louis by local trained volunteers as a part of Children’s Hunger Fund’s work in the region. Dave Phillips, President and Founder of Children’s Hunger Fund says of the Toy Wrap event, “This is a day when families can come together, roll up their sleeves, and give back to their own community. We’re excited to bring America’s Toy Wrap for the first time to St. Louis.” “We always welcome the chance to partner with organizations that benefit the community,” says Ruby Curry, interim president of St. Louis Community College – Florissant Valley. “Helping families and children in need dovetails with our mission to expand minds and change lives. The St. Louis Toy Wrap will bring a lot of joy to children this holiday season.” Children’s Hunger Fund is headquartered in California but has Distribution Centers operating to serve major regions of the United States. These Distribution Centers partner with local churches and volunteers to serve the poor through relationship building and lasting care. America’s Toy Wrap in St. Louis is open to the public.
