YOUNGSTOWN — Large garbage bags full of new toys came off of a semi tractor-trailer Wednesday at Gleaners Food Bank on Pyatt Street so that volunters could place them in the vehicles of families of 300 children.
In some cases, people came to pick up toys for three families, meaning they received three bags full. In several cases, the bags didn’t all fit very well into their car.
