It's with heavy hearts that we announce, the Toys for Tots Drive Thru that was scheduled to take place on November 27th at the Clarion Hotel’s parking lot, has ...been cancelled. While the event is cancelled the need still remains. Clarion Hotel will continue to collect toys, as well as 8 other locations across Abbotsford until November 27th. The latest announcement from Dr. Bonnie Henry left us no choice but to cancel the event. We all need to do our part to fight the spread of COVID-19 in our community. By doing our part, we keep the hope alive that everyone can have a safe Christmas. The reality is that the Abbotsford Christmas Bureau provides gifts and food to over 1,500 children at Christmas. With the cancellation of this event, we’re not quite sure what we will do. And while the drive thru event is officially cancelled, Archway Food Bank will continue to accept any donations through the Toys for Tots website. Thank you to everyone who had planned to come, and to those who still plan to donate a new toy for a child. We hope to see you all in person - next year!
