“This will be the only gift that some of these kids receive this year. This is a great opportunity to turn a sad situation into a happy one for these children,” Team Walker President/CEO Jerry Walker said regarding the Team Walker Toy Drive that will be conducted at the Seton Hall basketball double-header at Prudential Center in Newark on Saturday, Dec. 20. The Seton Hall women’s basketball team takes on North Carolina State at 4:00 p.m., followed by the men’s basketball team versus IUPUI (Indiana-Purdue at Indianapolis) at 7:00 p.m. Fans are encouraged to bring unwrapped toys to the arena, where Team Walker elves will collect them on the main concourse.
If you would like to donate gifts to the Team Walker Toy Drive, but will not be attending the game on December 20, you may mail the gifts to: Team Walker, 316 Communipaw Avenue, Jersey City, NJ 07304. To learn more about how you can help, contact Stacey at (201) 433-1888.
Team Walker is a non-profit organization founded by former Seton Hall basketball star Jerry Walker that assists the youth of Jersey City through academic and athletic after-school and summer programs.
