Thank you to everyone that supported our annual Holiday Star toy drive! For 29 years hundreds of Southampton residents have picked up a Holiday Star, generously displayed at businesses and churches and donated a gift for a local child. Each star has an item that is being requested to be donated i.e., Boy 8 – toy or Girl 2 – toy. We are delighted to partner with the First Presbyterian Church at 2 South Main Street, where parents are invited to come and “shop” for their children so they can feel the joy of giving! Each year, we have provided more than 1,000 toys to local kids. This past year, we also gave children pajamas, books, hats, gloves and family board games. If you are interested in helping us with this effort, email robin@heartofthehamptons.org. Stars are displayed at the following locations: 27 Hampton Salon Dormition of the Virgin Mary Greek Orthodox Church of the Hamptons First Presbyterian Church Fowler’s Garden Center Hildreth’s Home Goods La Carezza LoveShackFancy – Southampton & Sag Harbor North Sea Hardware Our Lady of Poland Pellegrino’s Pizza Bar and Restaurant People’s United Bank Rogers Memorial Library Schmidt’s Market Soul Cycle Water Mill Southrifty Drug St. John’s Episcopal Church Stevenson’s Toys Stony Brook Hospital The Basilica Parish of the Sacred Hearts of Jesus and Mary The Children’s School The Wharf Shop * list in formation A huge thank you to all of the businesses and churches involved!
