LearningRx is helping out children in need this holiday season with its 2013 Toys for Tots program. 

The program, hosted by the U.S. Marine Corps Reserve, invites the community to contribute new and unwrapped toys. Collections began in November and run through Dec. 10.

Those who drop off a new, unwrapped toy at the LearningRx Center, 630 E. Ogden Ave., will be given a free book “Unlock the Einstein Inside: Applying New Brain Science to Wake Up the Smart in Your Child,” written by Dr. Ken Gibson.
