ROCHESTER, N.Y. (WROC) — New York's annual holiday donation drive is back to help families in need — and you have a chance to help!

The drive began on November 1, and multiple drop-off locations have opened up across the state. New Yorkers may visit these locations to donate unwrapped toys, coats, school supplies, and non-perishable foods for underserved communities.
