Just a quick plug for the Marines' Toys for Tots campaign...
When you're out doing your Christmas shopping, consider adding a little something extra to your shopping basket. I don't know where the drop-off locations are in the States, but you should be able to find out online or through tv ads or something. Take an unwrapped toy (or two or three) for a child who won't otherwise have much of a Christmas. I've seen this program carried out to its ultimate end and I know that this is one campaign where you don't have to question the honesty of the activity. And if you have never done this sort of gift-giving (anonymously), believe me....you will feel great doing it! I probably had more fun picking out the toys than the children will have playing with them!
Semper Fi and Ho Ho Ho!!

Excellent suggestion - this is a pretty front-and-center program around here (local bases?)...in fact, I think there's a drop box down in the lobby here at the office. tip hat

Thats one of the many charities my work supports. They have a drop off in the building that will be taken to one of the many drop off locations around town.
