Atlanta children to receive plush animal toys

Children in several metro counties will receive plush Christmas animals donated by LifeWay Christian Stores customers.

Customers at LifeWay stores in Douglasville, Conyers and Kennesaw can buy the plush animals for $5 each to be donated to a local charity. Each store coordinates with a local nonprofit, hospital or relief group to distribute the toys. Other participating stores in Georgia are located in Augusta, Columbus and Macon. Their donations will benefit local charities.

In metro Atlanta, the stores are working with chaplains in several law enforcement and fire departments, Eagle Ranch and MUST Ministries.
