Get a jump on your holiday shopping and support a good cause by celebrating the 3rd annual Neighborhood Toy Store Day with The Toy Professor and Santa Claus Shop. 

The 430 Springfield Avenue, in Summit, graciously donated 10% of all standard sales to the Santa Claus Shop on Saturday, November 10th, in honor of Neighborhood Toy Store Day and has generously offered to continue their donation until Friday, November 16th.  Please come out and support the Santa Claus Shop and The Toy Professor.  If you would like to make an additional contribution to the Santa Claus Shop at checkout, The Toy Professor can add a tax deductible Santa Claus Shop donation to your invoice.

The Santa Claus Shop is chaired by Summit residents, Victoria Carrigan, Amy D’Andrea, Key Michel and Katrina Walsh and co-chaired by Stacie Collins, Carrie Fallon, Beth Little and Jenna Smith. 

In the wake of Hurricane Sandy, the tradition of the Santa Claus Shop is more important than ever as we ask for your help to spread some holiday cheer to those in need.   If you would like to keep the holiday spirit alive for those in the community, the Santa Claus Shop chairwomen ask for checks to be made payable to SHIP, with Santa Claus Shop noted on the check’s memo line, and mailed to the Santa Claus Shop, P.O. Box 119, Summit, NJ 07901.
