The Prime Team once again asks for your assistance as we make the holidays a little brighter for area families and individuals in need of a helping hand.<\/p>\n
Prime Advertising & Design is excited to continue a holiday tradition of partnering with CROSS Services as a drop-off site for their annual Holiday Toy Drive.<\/p>\n
CROSS Services<\/a>, located in Rogers, Minnesota, serves Champlin (West), Corcoran, Dayton, Maple Grove, Osseo, and Rogers. Since 1977, CROSS has provided food, clothing, and household supplies, as well as items for holidays, back-to-school, and other special occasions, to residents in temporary need.<\/p>\n The non-profit organization relies on donations from community members and businesses. Please consider showing your support this holiday season with a\u00a0donation of food, household, or personal hygiene items; new, unwrapped toys or other gifts for a child or teen; or a monetary contribution. Area families in need of extra support can choose gifts for their children from these donations at the CROSS annual Holiday Toy Shop event.<\/p>\n Prime Advertising & Design is proud to be a drop-off location for the\u00a0drive.
