Assemblyman Joe Giglio (R,I,C-Gowanda) will host his 5th Annual Holiday Open House at his Olean district office for residents of the Southern Tier. Giglio will be accepting new, unwrapped toys for the Marine Corps Reserve Toys for Tots program.

The Holiday Open House gives residents a chance to visit Giglio’s Olean office, which also will serve as a collection center for the Toys for Tots campaign. The open house will be held from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. on Thursday, December 10, at 700 West State Street in the Westgate Plaza in Olean.

“I am so grateful that we have this opportunity to not only open our doors to our neighbors, but also to have the honor of serving as a collection point for donations to the Toys for Tots drive,” said Giglio. “As we enjoy this holiday season with our family and friends, let us also remember the less fortunate and our ability to brighten the season for others. I encourage everyone to consider making a donation to Toys for Tots and to visit my office on December 10.”

Assemblyman Giglio will accept contributions for the Toys for Tots program until December 16 at the district office during the hours of 9 a.m. and 5 p.m., Monday through Friday.
