Warrensburg-Latham Lions Club collecting donations for holiday gift baskets

[November 15, 2025]  Collections of toys and monetary donations are underway for the 36th annual Warrensburg-Latham Lions Club Brotherhood Tree. The gift baskets will be provided to families in need in the Warrensburg-Latham School District.

Toy donations, for ages newborn to 17, are being collected at both village halls, the Bank of Latham and the Dollar Generals in Warrensburg and Sunnyside. The deadline for dropping off the toys is Friday, Dec. 12. The gifts need to be unwrapped.

Money may be dropped off at the Barclay Public Library in Warrensburg and the Warrensburg or Latham village halls. The money will be used to purchase food gift cards for families. Lions Club members will deliver the gift cards and toys prior to Christmas.

What started in a small Warrensburg grocery store years ago has progressed into a community-wide effort, involving the school district, villages of Warrensburg and Latham, their fire departments, local churches, area businesses, Da Burg Bar & Grill and individual donors.
