Rose Marie Galvin, Cathy DiChiara, Patricia Beggy, Tara Cochran, Anessa Schena, from the Revere Lodge of Elks, Mass Badge, Charmaine, from the BLVD at Revere Beach, and our very own Mr. and Mrs. Santa Lynne and Mike Grasso.

Lastly, I would like to give a special thank you to the women and men of the Revere Police Department. Thank you to our Uniformed Patrol Division, who assisted in the delivery of toys when needed and thank you to those Revere Police Department employees, who donated their time and toy donations ensuring the success of our 26th Annual Toy Drive. Their contributions are truly appreciated and have made a difference for those in our community.

In closing, it was great to see such community spirit during the Holiday Season! Together, we made a difference.
