Ambulance toy drive scheduled for Dec. 20 at Toy Chest

Joining forces with We Are The Children, American Medical Response, West Hartford's ambulance provider, will staff a toy drive on Dec. 20 at the Toy Chest in West Hartford Center.

An AMR ambulance will be parked in front of the Toy Chest Store on Farmington Avenue with its red and white lights flashing in an effort to draw attention to the event. Last year the community filled one ambulance of donated toys. This year, the goal is to fill two ambulances from floor to ceiling. 

We Are The Children continues to support children and their families by bringing the spirit of the holidays to Connecticut's kids, one child at a time.
