Brookline Bank again partnered with Marine Toys for Tots this holiday season, asking the public to donate new, unwrapped toys at the Arlington office at 856 Mass. Ave., during regular business hours.
The campaign ran through Friday, Dec. 6.
“We are very pleased to dedicate our banking offices again as drop-off locations for Toys for Tots,” Darryl Fess, president and CEO of Brookline Bank, noted in a news release. “It’s a privilege to take part in this initiative, and we’re grateful to be able to help make a difference for so many families this holiday season.”
Toys collected at Brookline Bank locations this year will bring holiday cheer to children in need across Essex, Middlesex, Norfolk,and Suffolk counties. In 2023, Brookline Bank collected more than 2,800 toys through the Marine Toys for Tots campaign, and the bank aims to exceed that this year.
In its 77th year, Marine Toys for Tots continues to provide new toys to children facing hardship. Through the generosity of the public, the U.S. Marine Corps Reserve’s Toys for Tots program has distributed more than 677 million toys to 301 million children nationwide.
