The North Carolina Department of Military and Veterans Affairs and the North Carolina Defense Business Association, along with other state agencies, have partnered this Christmas season to support the U.S. Marine Corps’ Toys for Tots Campaign.

The mission of Toys for Tots is to collect new, unwrapped toys each year and distribute those toys as Christmas gifts to children in need.

Toy collection is underway and continues through Monday, Dec. 17. The drop-off location for the NCDMVA Toys for Tots Campaign is at the NCDMVA Headquarters at 413 N. Salisbury St. in Raleigh.
