Rickett said that case workers would deliver the donations to families along with wrapping paper and tape.
“We’re kinda the go-between,” he said. “FLOC is the ones helping Santa Claus out – we’re more the reindeer.”
FLOC board member Doug Mann said this was actually the second delivery the charity had made to Children Services, bringing toys and cold-weather clothing like coats, hats and mittens.
“We are so proud to help our community. This is our way of giving back,” he said.
He also encouraged people who want to help the charity, either through donating money or volunteering, to go to its website at FLOCDayton.org.
