OTTAWA, Ont. — This weekend, you can help make Christmas a little better for local families by making a donation to the Snowsuit Fund or Toy Mountain – and you won’t even have to leave your house.

This Saturday is “Porch Day” – a charity drive organized by the online classified site UsedOttawa.com.  Organizer Julia Milstone-Turner said they’re looking for new, unwrapped toys and winter clothing for both children and adults.

“All you have to do to participate is leave your donations on your front porch on Saturday (Dec. 15) at 10:00 a.m.,” Milstone-Turner told 1310News. “UsedOttawa.com will come around with a big trunk and pick up everyone’s donations to be dropped off at Toy Mountain or the Snowsuit Fund.”

If you can contribute, you’re being asked to send an email with a brief description of the donation and pick up instructions.
