Farmingville, NY – In keeping with the true spirit of the holiday season, Brookhaven residents opened their hearts in a big way by donating thousands of toys at the Town’s INTERFACE Toy Drive. The event, held on December 10 in the lobby of Town Hall, was co-sponsored by the Town of Brookhaven Youth Bureau and JVC Broadcasting with on-air personalities from all five JVC radio stations broadcasting live throughout the day. The INTERFACE Holiday Toy Drive at Town Hall was the culmination of many weeks of special “Toy Drive” events throughout the Town of Brookhaven, and at several “drop-off” locations at Town of Brookhaven facilities. The Holiday Toy Drive will provide gifts for children in need, ranging in age from infant to 15 years of age. In 2020, despite the challenges of COVID-19, the Holiday Toy Drive provided toys for 1,181 families in need, including 6,337 children. The Town expects to pass that number this year.
