You can help those in need have a happy Christmas this weekend.

There is a toy drive taking place Saturday from 1:00pm until 4:00pm in the City Centre Mall parking lot in front of Wal Mart.

This is the third year that the Thompson RCMP detachment and Thompson Fire Department have hosted the drive, with all donations given to the Salvation Army locally.

Last year, the drive filled the RCMP van and the back of a truck with food and toys and collected just under $900 in cash.

To learn more about the drive, tune in to Thompson Today tomorrow afternoon at 12:40pm and again at 5:10pm.
