Virtual Toy Drive for 2020

Community Partners of Dallas 2020 Virtual Toy DriveParishioners of St. Thomas the Apostle have supported Community Partners of Dallas’s Annual Toy Drive for several years. These toys go to children in need throughout Dallas. The CPD Toy Drive for 2020, as you might expect, is virtual. You aren’t being asked to get out and shop for the toys which will probably be disappointing for many of us who love shopping for toys.

Please go to https://www.helpcpdkids.org and select the wishes you would like to fill. It’s super simple to do! Wishes this year range in price from $10.00 to $34.00 each. Please go the website and share the love by December 11. Once you’re on the checkout page, please find the spot that asks if you are filling wishes for a group. Enter “St. Thomas the Apostle” so we can see how many of us participate.

Every year, the Pillowcase Guild, headed by Kathy Carson, makes custom pillowcases for children who are placed into CPS protection too late for the distribution of gifts and are distributed after December 15. This year, the Pillowcase Guild is donating 135 handmade pillow cases.
