CUMBERLAND — Hundreds of dolls, trucks, stuffed animals and other toys at local collection sites are looking forward to being covered in holiday wrapping paper and being placed under Christmas trees where they will find their way into the arms of grateful children on Christmas morning.While donations have been down across the board, local organizations make sure children on their lists do not go without toys under their trees.
Through a variety of initiatives, the Salvation Army is able to provide toys to more than 500 children in Allegany County every year. In addition to collecting toys and monetary donations for the toy shop, which is set up to allow parents to select toys for their children, and making arrangements for local clubs and organizations to stuff stockings, the Salvation Army has begun a new angel tree program.
