About 200 families are expected to sign up for gifts this year. So, WNY Foster Closet has launched an Amazon Wish List with items ranging from $20 to $25 including new toys for children and gift cards for teenagers.

Donations can be dropped off at the WNY Foster Closet storefront or the Climb & Play Party Cafe, both located at the McKinley Mall. You can also find donation barrels outside several libraries throughout Western New York.

Whatever items aren't used for the holidays will be used for birthdays. Monetary donations are also greatly appreciated.
