SAVANNAH, GA (WTOC) – One local organization used today’s pleasant weather to deliver toys to those in need.
The Old Savannah City Mission loaded up with toys this afternoon then took them out into the neighborhoods, especially for little ones who might not otherwise get such things.
Volunteers and organizers alike say this is what the holidays are all about.
“This is the real deal about Christmas and I’m excited that there are so many volunteers that are wanting to help us,” said Jim Lewis with the Old Savannah City Mission. “It’s a time to celebrate and a time for kids to know they’re special.”
On Christmas morning, volunteers at the Old Savannah City Mission will be serving breakfast from 8am to 10am. Among those volunteers are members of the Savannah Jewish Federation who are trading places so those who wish to celebrate Christmas with their families can do so.
