TULSA -- The 2 Cares for the Community toy drive provides toys to families of children who have gone through severe medical procedures this year and were served by the Akdar Shrine.

The Akdar Shrine is committed to providing the best care for children in the specialty areas of orthopedics, burn care, spinal cord Injury, and cleft lip and palate, regardless of a family’s ability to pay. They transport pediatric patients from Tulsa-area hospitals to Shriners Hospitals for Children all over the country.

The toys you donate will be given to the children served by the Shriners this year as well as their siblings at a Christmas party on Dec. 9.

Approximately 1,100 families have been served by the Akdar Shriners this year. These families have suffered financial hardship from medical bills and loss of work. Help us spread the joy of Christmas to these families.

New, unwrapped toys are needed for children ages infant through 18.

HOW TO DONATE:

On Nov. 30 from 10 a.m. - 6:30 p.m. drop off your new, unwrapped toys or sports equipment at Mathis Brothers; 6611 South 101st East Ave. Tulsa, OK 74133
