Pat Foley, a local Edward Jones financial advisor, is supporting the 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 make a difference for children in the area by bringing in a new, unwrapped toy to the office, 37938 U.S. Highway 52 N., New London, during regular business hours through Dec. 9. Monetary gifts, including gift cards, cannot be accepted.

“Our purpose at Edward Jones is to make a positive difference for our clients, colleagues and communities. Serving as a collection point for the Toys for Tots drive is one way we can join with our community and deliver on that purpose,” Foley said. “And now, in the season of giving, it’s an ideal time to remember others in our community.”
