There are barrels in the rec centers (Laurel Manor) that collect pajama's for kids and maybe toys.???

Classy Ladies, Color Pencil Painters, our Village and there is a giving tree in the lobby of the Waterfront Inn.

St. Timothy has a collection area by the side door year 'round for those who need.

I bet any church that you would contact has such a plan in place.

In every rec center in TV is a red box that collects new pajamas and books for the over 6000 homeless children in Lake , Marion and Sumter County. This includes the children that live in the forest.
