The Wabasca Northern Store is making its support of the local toy drive an annual tradition, with a donation of around 100 toys this year. The Bigstone Fire Department and Home Hardware collected over 250 toys in their annual Toy Drive for Santas Anonymous, along with food and winter coats.

This is the second year that the Northern Store has contributed to this event, says Store Manager Rob McKinley.

The manager of Home Hardware was very happy with the store’s continued support, posting on social media after the event: “Thank you Rob McKinley and Northern Stores for supporting this great cause.”

The Northern store were delighted to be able to participate in this drive that will make a big impact on the community.
