This holiday season, the Dahlonega community is coming together to make Christmas brighter for local children in need. Through the annual Toy for Joy Drive and Giving Trees, residents can drop off new, unwrapped toys at collection sites around town from until December 12th.

Lumpkin Family Connection wants to ensure every child in the area experiences the joy of opening a special gift on Christmas morning. Community members are invited to donate toys for children of all ages — from infants to teens — helping spread holiday cheer to families who may be struggling this season.

Toy drop-off locations include:

• Lumpkin County Sheriff’s Office
• Giggle Monkey Toys
• Local Dollar Generals
• The American Legion

• Dahlonega Walmart
• Dahlonega Fitness Center
• Lumpkin County Park and Rec 
• Virtually (https://a.co/g1eC0Sk)
• Lumpkin County Elementary Schools and Middle School
