The holiday season is approaching and an annual event for WTAP is about to kick off!

Toys For Tots will be collecting toys for area children that are in need Friday at the Parkersburg KFC near the traffic circle.

WTAP's own Todd Baucher and Kirk Greenfield will be there to help collect.

The organization asks for unopened and unwrapped gifts.

This is the first time this season Toys For Tots will be collecting presents.
