Summary

The annual Beaver Island toy drive was underway in December 2014, collecting new toys for children receiving assistance through county social services. Collection boxes were placed at Island Airways terminals and the school, and the drive continued in memory of Ellen Welke.

Evidence limits

The announcement documents the appeal, distribution process, and privacy policy, but not the number of toys collected or children served.
