Walmart and Salvation Army joined forces, kicking off the "Fill the Truck" toy drive on Saturday.
The event was held to collect new toys and coats for the Salvation Army's Angel Tree program.
All the donations will go to children in need here in the Kanawha valley.
And a famous face stopped by the event to help. Two time super bowl champion Willie Parker was there to help "Fill the Truck."
The toy-drive is expected to provide gifts to more than 5,100 children.
