Toys for Tots has been a passion of Cook County 16th District Commissioner Frank J. Aguilar’s for more than 20 years. Aguilar joined Toys for Tots and the Royal Group to announce the start of toy collection at approximately 23 area Walgreens locations that are accepting donations. “Chicagoland Toys for Tots is a wonderful organization of dedicated people committed to making sure families everywhere are able to have a memorable holiday season” said Commissioner Aguilar. “I have been a proud member of Toys for Tots for two decades, and I am hoping our collaboration with Walgreens and Toys for Tots results in even more happy families than ever before!” Those interested in donating are encouraged to provide new, unwrapped toys that are placed into the toy-receiving receptacles located in designated Walgreens stores. Donations will be accepted now until bins are full and ready to go to Toys for Tots for distribution to families in need.
