Toy drive begins in July

Harrison’s Toy Box is holding its 11th annual Toy Drive.

Last year, the drive collected a total of 1,019 toys to donate to the Pediatric Center for Heart Disease in Hackensack.

The drive is named for Harrison Shauger of Wantage. He died in March 2012 at age 6 from complications of a congenital heart defect.

Donations of new toys for newborns through teens may be dropped off at these locations during July:

• Lakeland Pools & Spas, Vernon Valley Karate Academy and Vernon Valley Auto Body, all in Vernon.

• Lorenzo’s Pizza and Shear Intensity, both in Sussex.

• Dunkin Donuts, Vernon Pool and Spa Service, Brothers Pizza and Clovebrook Market, all in Wantage.

• Meyers RV and American Legion Post 157, both in Branchville.

Monetary donations are accepted throughout the year. All of the money is used to purchase toys.
