Source4Teachers Donates 300 Toys to The Salvation Army's Annual Christmas Toy Shop

Source4Teachers, a Cherry Hill-based leading provider of educational staffing solutions for pre-K-12 school districts, is partnering with The Salvation Army this year by donating a total of 300 toys to the organization’s Annual Christmas Toy Shop in three cities: Camden, Trenton and Jersey City. Source4Teachers selected these three cities based on need and the fact the company partners with school districts there.

 

Each year, The Salvation Army collects toys throughout the holiday season to help stock the shelves of their special Christmas Toy Shop, located at their headquarters at 915 Haddon Avenue in Camden. This year, the Toy Shop will hold and display over 2,000 toys for children of all ages.  In the spirit of giving, The Salvation Army then offers 500 pre-selected families (parents) the opportunity to visit the shop prior to the Christmas holiday and “choose” the toys they want to give their children. In addition to the toys, each family will also receive a turkey and gift card to purchase additional food items for their holiday dinners. Source4Teachers employees will be on-hand at The Salvation Army on Wednesday, December 18 from 1 to 3:30 p.m. to help distribute toys to parents.
