Toms River: With the contest closing today, we are happy to share we have accumulated about a dozen (12) Smart TV sets for donations for deserving families. This is the culmination of multiple anonymous donors from around Ocean County whom wish to make Christmas a little better for some families. We will begin notifying winning entrants via the emails or phone numbers they included in their original emails- so please watch for it. OCSN plans to distribute these TVs on Wednesday 12/23 in a public area. SO far we have volunteers with a van and someone in a Santa suit to assist in giving them away.

We truly want to thank everyone who entered- your stories touched us all here at OCSN. In a perfect world we would have 100 TV’s to give away, but we are quite impressed we were able to obtain the dozen we did. We also want to deeply thank everyone who donated cash or an actual TV for this promotion. The families or people who entered aren’t necessarily poor and can’t afford food- they just would like to have a TV for the holiday season. Please be respectful in your comments as you don’t know what other people are going through in their lives. Unless they volunteer to share their story, it really isn’t anyone’s business.

Thank you EVERYONE, and MERRY CHRISTMAS!
