BE A GROUP LEADER
Group leaders represent agencies and organizations that solicit applications from clients and community members who need assistance to access the fund.
Group applications are due early in the season. After we process the applications and pack the gifts, group leaders pick them up at our warehouse and bring them to distribution centers that are convenient for the recipients. There are many partners in this effort, including trucking companies and social service organizations. These groups do good work and are a joy to work with each year!
Contact us at pressheraldtoyfund@mainetoday.com for information about groups in our service area.
