BATAVIA – Roy Bailey, organizer of the Batavia ACCESS Committee’s annual toy drive, is a little worried because he’s well short of the number of toys needed to fulfill the wishes of the 675 children on his list this year.

But he has faith the community will support the endeavor and that every single child in need in Batavia will receive a toy for Christmas.

Bailey, 62, has faith because his mother had faith in the toy drive. His mother, Mildred, ran the toy drive for 30 years with two other people before she passed away two years ago and Bailey took control.
