Local Ruby Tuesday Locations Team Up This Holiday To Collect Toys
for Children at Boys & Girls Town of Missouri

Columbia, Mo. (Dec. 5, 2007) –Local Ruby Tuesday restaurants are partnering with Boys & Girls Town of Missouri for a holiday gift drive to bring holiday happiness to children who have suffer from emotional and behavioral problems. Many children in the care of Boys & Girls Town don’t have family with whom they can spend the holidays and, in many cases, these will be the only gifts the children receive.

When visiting Ruby Tuesday in the upcoming weeks, pull an ornament off of the designated Christmas tree. Each ornament will indicate a gift requested by a child at Boys & Girls town.  Please drop off an unwrapped gift through December 15, and make the holidays brighter for a child.  Donations should be appropriate for children ages 10 through 17.  Stuffed animals cannot be used.

For more information, or if you are interested in making a direct donation to help children who are victims of abuse or neglect, visit the Boys & Girls Town of Missouri web site at www.bgtm.org.
