Attention, Hills shoppers: the Fab 5 have hit the toy aisle. 📣🎄

That’s right— now comes with tiny hands, great hair, and some assembly required. Building a stronger community? We took that literally. 🧱😂

Put us on layaway for just $2 a week through payroll deduction, and cross “five local legends in one box” off your holiday shopping list. 🎁

And never forget, Hills is where the toys are. 💙💛❤️

On Indigenous Peoples’ Day, United Way of Greater Niagara honors the histories, cultures, and ongoing contributions of Indigenous peoples in Western New York and beyond.

Strong communities are built on respect, understanding, and belonging. Today, we encourage everyone to listen to Indigenous voices, learn about the Native nations connected to our region, and support Indigenous-led organizations and businesses.

Let’s carry that respect beyond today as we work toward a community where everyone has the opportunity to thrive.
