My great uncle Ray Kendrick has been building hand built toys and donating them to several different charities around the greater Orlando area for many years. He does this out of his love for children and to make sure that every child has a present to open for Christmas. This past year he donated over 4,000 hand built toys and covers the vast majority of expenses out of his own pocket. He does get donations of wood from several furniture companies in the Orlando area but has to spend his own money to buy such items as wheels for the cars (each car has 4 wheels to purchase), saw blades, sand paper and all the other tools and supplies to create so many toys for children.

He is a wonderful person and I would love to see him continue to provide so many toys for children in need.
