Nina's Pizzeria holding Toys for Tots donation drive

The Toys for Tots 2019 drive by Nina's and the Colonia Theater saw well over 250 guests and raised about $7000 between toy donations and sponsors. The 2020 event this year is seeking drop-off donations only on Saturday Dec. 12 in the rear parking lot of Nina's Pizzeria.

NORWICH – Despite the challenges local business leaders are facing many are still finding time to support community charities, who are also in need.


On Dec. 12 a toy drive and fundraiser will be hosted by staff at Nina's Pizzeria, with all donations going to Toys For Tots.


Nina's Pizzeria and the Colonia Theater had traditionally held a Spaghetti dinner fundraiser but COVID-19 social distancing restrictions made it impossible.


However, the pizzeria will still hold an outdoor toy drive from noon to 3 p.m. on Saturday, December 12.
