We Care Ministries helps make Christmas brighter for local families


What do you think of when you think of Christmas? Toys, Santa, a warm, cozy fire?

Some people in the community can only afford to think of Christmas that way, rather than provide such a holiday. That's why We Care Ministries Inc. of Martin is collecting new and used toys, as well as accepting donations of time and money, to help give more local residents the warm, cheerful Christmas everyone wants.

We Care has placed donation jars in businesses and restaurants in Martin and surrounding areas so that you can drop your spare change off for underprivileged children and families going through difficult economic times. Donations will be collected through Dec. 1 and all proceeds will be used to purchase new toys for Weakley County children.

If you really want to make a difference in a child's or family's Christmas this year, simply drop your spare change in the donation jars, or drop off new or used toys at We Care, located in the old Fred's building across from The Hearth restaurant in Martin.
