Ambridge High School senior Anthony Brown was among those who volunteered time this week to help make the distribution successful.
"I enjoy doing this," said Brown, 18, who helped with sorting, bagging and distributing, as part of his senior project.
Jim Sangermano, owner of a beauty salon and supply house, donated his warehouse space in Ambridge for the third year in a row. Prior to having the space, long-time volunteer Cora Pucci said the Christmas operation was moved around to different locations in Ambridge.
"They were looking for some more space and I had the space for it," Sangermano said.
