I know, but our program is slightly different and we can't use the name Toys for Tots, That's been copy righted.  Same idea we just call ours something different. Thanks for thinking of us.

     If you have time talk to your nearest Marine Corps Recurter they have a program "toys for tots"  and will probably be more than willing to help in some way throughout the entire region.  Every year there is a combined federal campaign fund to assist charities and this is one of the few i can support with out reservation.  I will get something in the mail to you soon

Operation Merry Christmas - Hurricane Area
Posted by Big Jake on Friday, October 6, 2006 9:31 PM

Hi Folks,

I'm writing to ask a favor. We're raising money and supplies for out local Operation Merry Christmas (OMC) program to be held 2 weeks before Christmas. I was wondering if anyone on the board would care to send a TOY to me so I can forward them to our group. I would rather a TOY than money, but any Checks sent will be deposited into the parish program to buy toys. Ages are from 3 years to 12-13 year old type stuff. What ever you feel like sending. We did not hold a OMC last year because of damage to the town hall and there were not many kids back in out town yet. People still have it hard as not many had insurance, so the extra money is mostly going for home repairs type things. My mailing adress at home is:

Jake Groby III
29354 Lyon Ln.
Lacombe, LA. 70445
(985) 882-9100

My mailing address at the water plant is:

C/O Jake Groby
St. Bernard Parish Water & Sewer Division
1111 E. St. Bernard Hwy.
Chalmette, LA. 70043
(504) 271-1681 x 234

Anything you feel like sending would be Ok, A new toy is needed in the carton they come in so we can wrap them.


Thanks Folks,
Jake Groby
