Seasons Greetings NST Members,
'Tis the season
for giving. Once again we are tapping into your generosity this holiday
season to give to those less fortunate than ourselves. This time around
we are supporting Toys For Tots. Here is some information you might like
to read on Toys For Tots and how it works.
Local toy
collection campaigns begin in October and last until December 22. Toy distribution
normally takes place on December 23 and 24. Members of the community drop
new, unwrapped toys in collection boxes positioned in local businesses.
Coordinators pick up these toys and store them in central warehouses where
the toys are sorted by age and gender. At Christmas, coordinators, with
the assistance of local social welfare agencies, church groups, and other
local community agencies, distribute the toys to the needy children of
the community. Over the years, Marines have established close working relationships
with social welfare agencies, churches and other local community agencies
which are well qualified to identify the needy children in the community
and play important roles in the distribution of the toys.
All you have
to do is pick up some brand news toys and drop them off.  Simple
as that! You will be bringing cheer to many children who probably won't
get anything else for Christmas. For your efforts you will be rewarded
1 point for each dollar you spend to NST prizes! You just need to send
in a copy of your receipt to nstpoints@yahoo.com
to get your points.
DEADLINE for Receipts
is DEC, 22, 2008

Now is our chance
again to work together in an effort to bring joy to someone's life! You
can also let them know you are working with the NELSON STREET TEAM by putting
a business card you received in your NST Fan Club Kit in with your toy.
Make sure you wish them
a wonderful holiday on the back!
Let's show everyone
how awesome Matthew & Gunnar's fan are!
Rock On with your
Bad Self! |
