Every year, Creston families in need during the holidays put in requests to MATURA Action Corporation for items such as clothing or winter gear. With the help of MATURA and donations from the community, many families receive requested necessities.
While children in these families need clothing, the staff of Stalker Chevrolet in Creston decided they should also receive something fun for Christmas: toys.
This year, Stalker Chevrolet hosts the sixth annual Santa’s Silverado Sleigh, a program in which people in the community begin donating new, unopened toys to be stored in the bed of a Silverado from Nov. 13 to Dec. 13. Then, the toys are donated to MATURA and distributed to families in need.
The goal is to completely fill up the bed of the pick-up truck. Stalker’s also take money donations, so the staff can shop to even out the toys as far as boy and girl toys.
If you’d like to make a toy or monetary donation, visit Stalker Chevrolet, 601 S. Sumner Ave.
