Cars R Us, FX 101.9 partner for toy drive in Lower Sackville, NS

Lower Sackville used car dealership Cars R Us, together with radio partner FX 101.9, concluded its annual Christmas toy drive in support of The Salvation Army last week.

This year marked the 14th annual drive at Cars R Us. This year’s edition culminated last Friday with FX 101.9 personality Denyse Sibley broadcasting live from the dealership all day, featuring live music, refreshments and lots of Christmas fun.

When the dust settled, over 100 bags of toys – totalling over 1,000 individual toys – were collected during the drive.

The Salvation Army began distributing its Christmas support hampers this week to families in need in HRM. The hampers include food for a turkey dinner with all the trimmings, as well as gifts for every child in the house. Children up to age 12 receive toys, while the teenagers receive gift cards. Drives like this one equip us with the toys necessary to make Christmas a little bit brighter for children in need in our community.

Thank you to Cars R Us and FX 101.9 for another successful year.
