5TH ANNUAL TOY & GROCERY GIVEAWAY!


,Volunteer Sign-up HERE to help spread joy this holiday season.

TOY DRIVES

Can you host a toy drive for us? Our goal this year is to help 150 families, and we can achieve this with your support. We’re accepting new, unwrapped toys until December 16, 2024. Below are our suggested wish lists, and we also need wrapping supplies such as gift bags, tape, and name tags.

Kids (Ages 0–17):

  • New, unwrapped toys only
  • Please, no stuffed animals—we’ve received a large donation of them already
Gift Bags/Wrapping Paper
  • To speed up the process, some items will be placed in gift bags
  • We need gift bags in all sizes, from small to extra large, and in either paper or plastic (for the extra large sizes)
  • Wrapping paper, tissue paper, scissors, tape, and gift tags are also needed

Gift Bags/Wrapping Paper

  • With food costs continuing to rise, we need your help with canned and boxed food items this year, so think out of the norm. Host a boxed dessert drive or a Mac & Cheese drive, etc.

  • Our goal is to provide a grocery box for every parent and a bag of toys for every child, which means packing 150 boxes—a big task that requires a lot of groceries
