“Christmas came early at the Ted Williams Tunnel Barracks (H-9) with a sleigh full of presents for Marine Corps Reserve Toys for Tots toy drive. Trooper Derek Brozowski, a former Marine infantry officer who served 2 tours of duty with the Marines in Afghanistan, organized the barracks effort that led to a legendary haul for children in need. Trooper Brozowski, with the assistance of Trooper Eben Sullivan, delivered an entire, full-size pickup truck worth of toys to the Toys for Tots processing center in Boston. Santa’s sleigh couldn’t accommodate the number of toys that he delivered.
The efforts of Trooper Brozowski and all of the other Troopers at H-9 were so effective that they are still receiving donations. In fact, someone arrived today and delivered ten shopping bags from Target chock-full of brand new toys. Thank you to all who made this happen. Your efforts are greatly appreciated.
While toys can no longer be dropped off at State Police Barracks, you can still deliver toys directly to the TFT drop off center located at 262 Swansea Mall Drive in Swansea through Friday, December 20th.
Pictured below is Trooper Derek Brozowski with just a few of the shopping bags that were just delivered.” -Massachusetts State Police.
“In addition, there was the final delivery of toys from the Foxboro barracks to the USMC Reserve Toys for Tots collection facility. Toys can no longer be dropped off at State Police Barracks and we are so grateful to all those who donated.
As you can see from the picture below, the collection facility is running low on toys, so if you would still like to donate, you can deliver toys directly to the TFT drop off center located at 262 Swansea Mall Drive in Swansea through Friday, December 20th.”
