PUNXSUTAWNEY, JEFFERSON COUNTY - For the second year, Femco is a main drop off for Toys for Tots of Jefferson County.

They learned from last year they need a place to store the toys and so, they created a Gingerbread Drop off house. The crew spent a whole Saturday decorating the house.

 
"It was fantastic it brought out warmth in your heart that this was going to be for the kids" said employee Mike Fetterman.


Shawn Ball added the "spice" to the house creating a gingerbread couple for the front to greet guests.


" Made a templates, cut them out with a jig saw, painted them and air brush them" He said.

Peeking in, it is jolly to see the space is half filled with gifts for under 400 kids trees.


"It's been going really well we have had a lot of donations. We have a very generous community" said Janeen Love of Community Action Inc.

Drop off is not limited to Femco. There are other sights in Brookville, Brockway and across the county.  Gifts will be sorted December 14.
