Members of
the Myles Scully Division #1 of Yonkers McLean Ave. Kids Drive Yonkers
The toy
drive has been organized and run by Division #1 member Jimmy Casey for over a
decade, and we were glad to see him fully recovered from his injuries suffered earlier
this year. “It’s all about the kids”, said Casey “I will never not be here”.

Hundreds
of people from the local area showed up with their donations, which were placed
in large bins provided by Liffy Van Lines.
The drive normally receives so many toys each year that they are able to
distribute them to other organizations that need them.

| More than a dozen containers from Liffey Van Lines were filled with donations |
Division
#1 presented the S.A.IL. Institute with monetary donation and many individual
members dropped off toys throughout the day.
