A month-long toy drive conducted by the Chili’s Restaurants in Northern Nevada is wrapping up today at 10 a.m.

The Northern Nevada Chili’s Restaurants have been collecting toys for Ashlee’s Toy Closet, Inc. since shortly after Thanksgiving.

Now, 10-year-old Ashlee Smith, founder of Ashlee’s Toy Closet, Inc. will be at the Sparks Chili’s today at 10:00am to receive all of the collected toys. Ashlee, who was recently awarded Citizen of the Year by the Reno Gazette-Journal, is very excited to meet those who have helped her.

Ashlee has been waiting to get the toys to the children in Southern California after so many homes were devastated by the recent wildfires.

Chili’s Bar & Grill is located at 137 Los Altos Pkwy in Sparks.

For more information about Ashlee’s Toy Closet, call 527-2245 or visit www.ashleestoycloset.org.

Ashlee would like to thank everyone in the community for their help and support of her organization. She has many upcoming events and dreams to help take her foundation national.
