Children send toys to Beirut for Christmas relief

More than 3,000 toys and 5,400 lollipops are sent to Beirut children with a plea to hostage-takers to free captives. Toys travel free by air, with final delivery by St. Francis Church in Beirut. Carmella LaSpada of No Greater Love leads the effort, funded by union donations from Painters, Iron Workers, Sheet Metal Workers, and Fire Fighters.
