Chio from Wired 96.5 and a whole slew of other people -- including Diddy and NBC’s Aditi Roy and Jameson Uhler -- are collecting toys and making holiday wishes come true on Monday morning.

The Chio in the Morning Show will be broadcasting live from the Wachovia Center on Dec. 7 from 7 a.m. to 10 a.m. and they’re urging Philadelphians to bring new, unwrapped toys for children in need.

The toy drive is part of the radio host’s Christmas Wish, an annual charity that he began in 1998 to help families with financial, physical or mental difficulties during the holiday season.

And if helping others is not incentive enough (tsk, tsk), then come out to see Diddy (yes, P.Diddy, Puff Daddy, Puffy – this dude changes his name more than Prince) – he’ll be in the Wachovia Center making one family’s Christmas Wish come true.

Diddy will joined by the Eagles’ Todd Herremans, the entire Philadelphia Passion lingerie football team, Chio’s former partner in crime, Diego Ramos, and 6ABC’s Rick Williams.

Philadelphia Police and Fire Departments will be making toy deliveries and Santa will taking time out of his busy schedule to take pictures with the kiddies.
