Kapco's Kids2Kids Toy Drive now in 18th year, sets 15K toy goal
GRAFTON, Wis. - Kapco's Kids2Kids Toy Drive held a "Celebration of Giving" event Saturday, Dec. 9 – highlighting its 18th year.
This year's campaign to collect toys for kids across Greater Milwaukee included an effort from Cedarburg, Grafton, Homestead and Port Washington high school students to generate donations and sponsorships.
"This year we would like to hit a goal of at least 15,000 toys – pretty sure we're going to exceed that," said Kapco's Sara Dunlap.

Since Kids2Kids started in 2006, organizers said the campaign has collected and distributed more than 350,000 toys to families in need.
