“This event is a family-friendly event each year to raise efforts for not only giving back during the holiday season, but kind of community togetherness - showing that together, we can really help those in need,” Lewis said. “[It’s] kind of that, ‘Better to give than receive’ mentality for this holiday season.”
Lewis added that Decaro’s will be providing appetizers while supplies last, which have been donated by Decaro’s and Sysco, two of the event’s sponsors.
Representatives from both nonprofits will be there to answer questions about their organizations, making the event a great way for the community to learn more about them.
This year’s "Tunes For Toys" is sponsored by the Post Commons, Soulard Blues Band, Roger Lewis, Sysco, and Decaro’s. For more information, contact info@altonodysseytours.com.
