We’re going to help 250+ families. Here’s how…


Smiles make the greatest gifts.

It’s going to be an extra merry toy donation with Clark the Lark!

Join us and help us give a smile at the Christmas with the Larks powered by North American Coal at the Mandan Holiday Lights on Main. On Sunday, December 4 from 5-7PM, we are accepting all kinds of toys.

Last year, the best Larks fans came together to raise over $1,450 in the Salvation Army kettle and donated 729 gifts in just 2 hours. That helped over 250 families! This year, we’re adding an extra hour and we’re going to raise even more.

When you help us give a smile, you will receive a special pair of Larks mittens from North American Coal. *one gift per person, per donation

Help us give a smile to the local Salvation Army this year.
