Mr. Joe Burden, a veteran Marine, retired Washington, DC police officer, composer, vocalist and band leader, delighted the attendees by singing the song he composed for Toys for Tots. Joe and his combo entertained the attendees with Christmas music during lunch. The goal for 2000 is to bring the joy of Christmas to as many needy children across the nation as possible. Everyone can help Marines achieve this goal. The web site contains the addresses and phone numbers of the Toys for Tots Coordinators in 351 communities across the nation.
