Fulton County District 5 Commissioner Marvin S. Arrington, Jr. is preparing to bring some holiday cheer once again to children around the county.
Commissioner Arrington is inviting residents to support the 2023 Dads, Daughters, Dolls + Sons Toy Giveaway, which begins Monday, December 4, 2023. In partnership with the Fulton County Sheriff’s Office, Commissioner Arrington is working to collect new dolls and other toys for the sons and daughters of men incarcerated in the Fulton County Jail.
"This is truly the season of giving and for being thankful,” said Commissioner Arrington. “As a father, I know firsthand the importance of showing children love. That’s why this toy drive is vital. I want these children to feel the impact of their fathers’ love far beyond the bars. They need to know that regardless of whether or not their fathers are physically present they are still loved."
Toy collection for the Dads, Daughters, Dolls + Sons Toy Giveaway will take place December 4 through December 15 from 8:30 a.m. until 4:30 p.m. at the following locations below:
Distribution of the toys will take place on Monday, December 18th, from 5 p.m. until 6:30 p.m. Community members are invited to serve as volunteers to assist.
