SUMMARY: Jenna Faragut, whose daughter Ariana succumbed to an atypical teratoid rhabdoid tumor, initiated a Christmas toy drive to honor her memory and bring joy to children at St. Jude’s, where they spent holidays during treatment. Over the past four years, the drive has grown significantly; this year, over 1,000 toys were collected, surpassing her initial goal of 500. The community, including local schools and organizations, has shown immense support. Faragut collaborates with families who have faced similar losses to transport the toys to St. Jude in Memphis.
