Towson, MD — Western Correctional Institution in Cumberland donated 150 wooden toys built by inmates with physical disabilities to local charities for underprivileged children this holiday season. The inmates, who otherwise might not be able to perform a job while incarcerated, skillfully created toys ranging from rocking horses to helicopters in the program that began in 2007. “The inmates who build toys are passionate and proud of their accomplishments knowing they have made a child smile that otherwise may have not received a present for Christmas,” said Debbie Kisamore, the institution’s toy shop coordinator.
Yeah right...how much Holiday Cheer did they spread during their crime spree(s)?
ReplyDeleteSo what? They are paying for it.
ReplyDeleteThis is a nice way to give back, and hopefully they have learned a new, marketable skill.
Now those are quality toys. Not like the junk we usually see. Eveyone deserves a second chance.
