On behalf of Kohler Brownwood and their Associates, Mitzi Dahlberg, Human Resources Generalist, presented a $1,000 donation to Wanda Martin, Founder Toys for Kids, to help with their shopping this year. Kohler has been a long-time supporter of Toys for Kids through donations, volunteers to wrap gifts, and Associate Toy Drives.
Dahlberg is also partnering with Toys for Kids for a Kohler Toy Drive. This year instead of a nominal cost for tickets to the annual Kohler Kids Christmas event, Associates will be donating a new-unwrapped toy for admission.
Those who wish to donate to the local Toys for Kids may drop off new toys at Grand Starz, 2323 Belle Plain in Brownwood, Brownwood Fire Stations, Early Police Department or call (325) 646-6822 and arrange for pick-up.
Checks or money orders can be mailed to Toys for Kids; P.O. Box 912; Brownwood, TX 76804.
