Thompson Toddlers Annual Fund Drive

It is time once again that Thompson Toddlers is soliciting local businesses and organizations from Thompson and surrounding areas for their support, as they have graciously done in the past.

The list of children and families in need has grown considerably since Thompson Toddlers first started. Without contributions, they could not continue to grow as they have in the past four years.

The third annual Thompson Toddlers Christmas dinner will be held Saturday, December 9, 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. at Freedom Lodge 328, Thompson.

Inquiries or donations may be sent to Thompson Toddlers, P.O. Box 111, Thompson, PA 18465; or see Chuck at Hobbs Market or Shirley at Carpet Catalog, Thompson.
