The American Legion Women’s Auxiliary, FHF Hair Design and The West Cinema are all partnering for this holiday season to ensure that local youth won’t go without on Christmas morning.

Unwrapped gifts and toys for children are being collected at FHF Hair Design and The West Cinema in Cedartown through December 17, and they’re asking for the community to step up ahead of Christmas and give back this year.

Collections will go to local children in need across Polk County in the 17th annual Toy Drive organized with the help of FHF Hair Design.

Drop off one or more toys at 305 Main Street at FHF Hair Design during business hours, or at The West Cinema during Friday night and weekend showings (or Mystery Movie Mondays) at 112 West Avenue.
