The Greenville Chapter of the Salvation Army sponsors a Christmas Toy Distribution for needy families in Greenville, South Carolina. Bags of toys and BiLo food certificates that have been donated by local area businesses and individuals are packaged and distributed to families who have applied for the Christmas Distribution Program. The Salvation Army's existing toy distribution system consisted of manual bag identification (a printed sheet stapled to each bag) and bag distribution by a staff of volunteers on "distribution day." Since the manual system did not allow for easy tracking or accountability of the gift bags as they were assembled or distributed, several problems ensued. The bar coding application and equipment provided by BarCode ID Systems prevented multiple issues and streamlined the entire assembly, inventory and distribution process for the Salvation Army Christmas Toy Distribution.
