Providence, RI – The Providence Performing Arts Center (PPAC), in partnership with WPRI CBS 12 and Cardi’s Furniture & Mattresses, is helping to make the holidays brighter for Rhode Island children. Starting this Saturday, November 29, PPAC will be a collection site for Toys for Tots; a collection box will be in the Theatre’s Arcade near the Box Office window.
