News

As the holiday season gets underway, the Mo-Kan NAMA Chapter is pleased to announce that we will be collecting toys for the U.S. Marine Toys for Tots Foundation. The mission of the Toys for Tots program is to collect new, unwrapped toys during October, November and December each year, and distribute those toys as holiday gifts to needy children in the community. The primary goal of the program is to deliver, through a new toy, a message of hope to less fortunate youngsters that will assist them in becoming responsible, productive, patriotic citizens.

Please bring a new, unwrapped toy to the November and/or December meeting.
