The Municipal Institute of Social Services and the Youth Council have been organized on the occasion of Christmas and the slogan "Your toy and a more" solidarity campaign Toy Collection, with the goal that no child is left without a toy in these special days.
This toy drive is sponsored by other entities as TELECARTAGENA, Carrefour, the School of Tourism, Practise, Peak Mall and McDonald's.
The councilman of Social Care, Antonio Calderon is confident that this year, double the figure of 1,400 toys were collected last year.
We need to get to all the illusion of Twelfth Night is a reality in every home, he said.
Nearly a thousand children from Cartagena are already in the waiting list this year to get a new toy for Reyes.
And this year not only from families at risk of social exclusion but also those that are in a difficult economic situation.
The chairman of the Youth Council, Manuel Soler, said that toys can be delivered in all areas of township youth, being the focal point of Youth Resource Center Paseo Alfonso XIII.
Any citizen who wishes may submit their new toys, in addition to the areas of youth, at any municipal facilities and partner companies mentioned above.
TELECARTAGENA work, as every year, with the traditional telethon to be held on December 23, from 17 to 23 hours, and with that figure expected to exceed one thousand toys.
Carrefour, meanwhile, will try over 500 toys, and each delivered in Mc Donalds fast food company will give away a menu.
The deadline to deliver the toys in each one of the collaborators is the 2nd of January, although it is preferable to be delivered before the end of the year because you have to select them by age, package and distribute them with the help of the royal pages.
