Updated 16 mins agoPastor Kenyatta Smith has been collecting thousands of toys for children in need as part of his congregation's annual Operation Cover Chicago toy drive.
On the night of Dec. 21, hundreds of families are expected to line up at Another Chance Church, located at 9550 South Harvard for free toys for their kids.“We have no donations,” Smith said. “Inflation is here. With no money and thousand of children coming here to get a toy, we need help.”The church has set an ambitious goal, hoping to raise enough money to purchase 10,000 toys in the next two weeks.
“We have a big journey in front us and we have a small amount of time,” Smith said. “I have no other choice but to be hopeful cause some kid is depending on us.”
