It’s that time of year when we turn our thoughts toward the holidays. The mailbox is full of requests for donations, and Brookhaven hopes you will be generous right here at home.
Two events are coming up – The Car Show Food and Toy Drive and the JVC Broadcasting Toy Drive.
All Suffolk Car Clubs is sponsoring the Car Show Food and Toy Drive to help needy Long Islanders have a happy holiday.
Club members will be displaying their cars in the south parking lot of Brookhaven Town Hall to raise donations for families in need through the Brookhaven Youth Bureau’s Interface Program. Attendees are asked to bring non-perishable food items to contribute to the Thanksgiving Food Drive and new, unwrapped toys for children to open during the holiday season. Cash donations are also accepted.
When: Sunday, November 12, 2023 from 9:00 am - 3:00 pm
Where: Brookhaven Town Hall, 1 Independence Hill, Farmingville, NY 11738
There will be a silent auction, raffles, live music and more. For additional information contact Maxine at 516-658-1977.

Those who stop by are asked to donate a new, unwrapped toy to help bring joy to a child of a family in need as they open a gift during the holiday season. Last year, residents donated thousands of toys, ranging from board games and dolls to toy trucks and bicycles.
