Christmas and Holiday Programs
Positively Roselle Park is Positively about Christmas and the Holiday Season. “We kick off our season with the Annual Toy Drive,” said toy drive coordinator Jodi Bellomo. “Our priority has always been the children of Roselle Park in need, but with the overwhelming response over the years, we also donate today to many worthy organizations.” Toys should be new and unwrapped and be dropped off by December 19th. Gift Certificates are also welcomed. No Used Toys or Clothes PLEASE.
Joe DeIorio, volunteer coordinator, “This year we expanding our toy drive outreach and partnering with the Roselle Park West End Community Center, a non-profit organization who has been a contributor of many worthy groups in Roselle Park.”
You can drop off at Santa’s Toy Workshop Central at Joe & Jodi’s Barbershop at 210 Chestnut Street in Roselle Park or the many other small businesses and other toy stations around the community.
