TULSA---QuikTrip Corporation today donated the tons of toy they had collected for their 17th annual Toys for Tots drive.

"When we get collections that are this big it goes so far to help us reach our goals of helping out children in need," said Staff Sergeant Berger, the Toys for Tots Coordinator.

The marines who are partnered with QuikTrip for the toy drive brought two 7-ton trucks to haul the toys away for sorting and distribution, and found so many toys they had to make a second trip.

"Not only the QuikTrip employees and division people donate money and go out and buy the toys, but our customers come in and they drop off toys at the QuikTrip locations, so it's not just our employees but our customers help as well," said QuikTrip's Mike Thornbrugh.
