WILSON CO., Tenn. (WTVF) — The holiday season is here, and community organizations are working to make sure every family has what they need this year, including Wilson County Christmas For All.
All year long, volunteers prepare for Christmas Day by shopping and organizing toys. Now, you can help the toys make it under the tree for kids in Wilson County. You can volunteer to “shop” for individual children from their Christmas list, sponsor a child, or donate.
