Pa. L&I department approves, donates over 1,000 stuffed toys to Holiday Wish program

Harrisburg, Pa. — The Pennsylvania departments of Labor & Industry (L&I) and Human Services (PA DHS) announced Monday that L&I approved 1,052 stuffed toys for sale in Pennsylvania this year, following routine safety inspections to ensure the toys are safe for children. In what has become an annual tradition, L&I donated the approved toy samples to PA DHS’ Holiday Wish program, and they will be distributed to Pennsylvania families during the holiday season. This year’s donation is just shy of last year’s record of 1,085 toys , and includes 100 stuffed toys made with recycled materials. Pennsylvania previously prohibited recycled materials in stuffed toys sold in the Commonwealth until Governor Josh Shapiro signed Act 30 of 2024 into law, updating the Stuffed Toy Manufacturing Act to allow their use. Toys made with recycled materials must still meet Pennsylvania’s safety and labeling requirements before they can be sold. “Our team works year-round to make sure the toys children play with meet Pennsylvania’s safety standards, and this annual tradition of then donating the samples we approve is a wonderful reminder of the impact this work can have beyond the inspection process,” said L&I Secretary Nancy A. Walker. “This year, we've reached an

Penn College receives ‘Best for Vets’ recognition

Williamsport, Pa. — Pennsylvania College of Technology is among 370 institutions nationwide and 15 in the state recognized in the Military Times’ 2026 Best for Vets: Colleges rankings. “The military-connected student today looks different than many people imagine,” said Jon Simkins, editor-in-chief of Military Times. “It’s a veteran starting a second career, a Guard member balancing drill weekends with classes, a spouse finishing a degree between moves. The schools on this year’s list understand that, and they’re building support around the real lives of the people they serve. That’s exactly what we want our readers to know when they’re choosing where to invest their education benefits.” Colleges and universities are selected for the list based on a detailed survey of each school’s policies, programs and outcomes. The survey covers school culture, student support services, academic policies, costs and financial assistance, and military-connected student success rates. This is the fourth time Penn College has made the Best for Vets list. “The folks at Military Times conduct one of the most comprehensive evaluations of colleges and universities across the country. We are proud at Penn College to be recognized for our long-standing commitment to supporting those who have chosen to serve our
