Mineola Youth and Family Services is sponsoring a holiday toy drive. Mineola Youth, a nonprofit organization that provides free after-school programs, summer recreation and clinical services, is asking citizens and businesses to donate new, unwrapped toys and games for children ages 7-16. All toys will be given directly to children served at Mineola Youth and the patients of the therapeutic nursery and playroom at Nassau County Medical Center. The toy drive will go until Dec. 14.

You can drop off the toys at Mineola Youth and Family Services, 450 Jericho Turnpike, Suite 201, in Mineola, near Harry Katz Carpet One, or at Long Island Dental, 220 Mineola Boulevard in Mineola.
