From Edward Jones

 

Roy Parker, a local Edward Jones financial advisor, is supporting the U.S. Marine Corps Reserve Toys for Tots program by using his office as a drop-off location for this year’s toy drive.

Local residents may help needy children in the area by bringing in a new, unwrapped toy to the office, 1251 Highland Drive, Washington, during regular business hours beginning Nov. 8 through Dec. 8.

“With the holiday season around the corner, we are all getting ready for the festivities,” Parker said. “And as this is the season of giving, now is a great time to remember the less fortunate in our community.”
