Columbus Edward Jones office supports Toys for Tots

Published 8:57am Friday, November 16, 2012

Jay Geddings, a local Edward Jones financial advisor, is supporting the U.S. Marine Corps Reserve Toys for Tots program by using his office as a drop-off location for this year’s toy drive.

Local residents may help needy children in the area by bringing in a new, unwrapped toy to the office, in Dunn’s Columbus Commons, 155 West Mills Street, Columbus, during regular business hours beginning Nov. 13 through Dec. 12.

“With the holiday season around the corner, we are all getting ready for the festivities,” Geddings said. “And as this is the season of giving, now is a great time to remember the less fortunate in our community.”

Edward Jones is headquartered in St. Louis. The Edward Jones website is located at www.edwardjones.com, and its recruiting website is www.careers.edwardjones.com. Member SIPC.
