Now in its second year, our toy drive kicked of at the end of September. Members collected toys, books and school supplies for needy families in Grenada. On packing day we had accumulated 40 school bags filled with school supplies, two boxes loose supplies, notebooks, pens, geometry sets etc and one box toys for children aged 3 -12.
The first shipment was donated to the Sickle Cell Association of Grenada under 12 Children’s Christmas Party. Member Hannah Budhlall was on hand to make the delivery to the kids along with Santa Claus! A great time was had by all.
The second shipment will be disbursed through the Ministry of Social Development. The handing over will take place in Grenada in January. President Trisha Mitchell and members Dwight Darius and Hannah Budhlall will be on hand to make the delivery. Toy collection will continue throughout the year with a goal to have at least three shipments per year. Persons
who wish to donate should contact the organization at spiceyouthtoroto@gmail.com.
