Goshen - Orange County Executive Edward A. Diana and Congressman John Hall placed gifts in the Toy Box to remind residents of this important program to help those less fortunate.
"This year more than ever we need to remember those who have been struck by the economic downturn," Diana said. "Parents feel keenly the frustration when they are unable to provide a gift for their child and it is important that those of us who are able to help do so."
"The holidays should be a time of magic and wonder for children," said Congressman Hall. "We want to bring that spirit of giving to Orange County residents by supporting the Toy Box program."
