MARY COATES, Richland

While shopping the other day at the Dollar Tree in Richland, I noticed toys at the counter. When I asked about them I was told customers had been buying them to donate to local groups in the area.

Hats off to the Dollar Tree employees and hats off to the customers for purchasing these nice little gifts for the needy. I was told the customers have purchased hundreds of these. Now that's the spirit of giving. Great job!
