A local nonprofit that provides essential services for people in need is hoping to make their holidays a little brighter.
Person to Person's annual "Holiday Toy Store" grand opening is coming up Friday.
Over 1,000 families are expected to visit the store this year to personally choose gifts for their children.
The "Holiday Toy Store" is made possible thanks to the kindness of hundreds of Connecticut residents and local businesses who donated toys, books, board games, gift cards, and money.
Supporting P2P's "Holiday Toy Store" are numerous corporate and community volunteer groups, along with nearly 400 volunteers who will help set up and run the store.
