Toy Drive for Holly Acres Families

Drive will benefit other families in the Woodbridge and Manassas areas.

The Woodbridge Workers Committee will be collecting toy donations for families from Holly Acres, Woodbridge and Manassas.

Woodbridge Workers Committee assisted Holly Acres families after floods devastated the community Sept. 8.

"Most of the Holly Acres families still have no permanent housing and are sharing very cramped quarters with several other families," said a press release from the organization. "Christmas will be a very tough time for these families and we are hoping to bring some joy into the lives of the children."
