In an effort to brighten the holiday season for children in need, Weichert, Realtors, along with its affiliated companies, has kicked off the company’s 30th Annual Toy Drive.

Toys will be collected at each of the company’s sales offices for distribution to financially and/or physically disadvantaged children within the local communities. Weichert employees at the company’s corporate headquarters in Morris Plains, N.J., as well as other locations throughout the United States and abroad, will also participate in the yearly community service event.

Weichert offices will accept donations of new unwrapped toys through December. Local charities that aid needy or underprivileged children will deliver the toys during the holidays. Last year more than 23,700 toys were distributed to charitable and service organizations in the communities Weichert serves.
