ABATE’s Toys for Kids event will be held on Saturday, Dec. 8 at 10 a.m. at the Knox VFW. ABATE Treasurer Deb Young said this is an invitation-only event and the members were able to help quite a few families this year.
“We have a total of 79 families and 214 children whom we have purchased gifts for,” explained Deb Young. “I’m very excited to see the kids on Saturday morning. Unfortunately, we’re not able to provide for all the children in Starke County so we do it by invitation.”
