Donate a Toy
Each year, countless children across the Bay Area face the holidays without a single gift to open. For a young child, your donation brings the joy of discovering something chosen just for them. For a teen who understands what their family is going through, it’s a reminder that someone was thinking of their family too.

What Happens to Your Toy.
Our volunteers sort every donated toy by age, from babies to teenagers. Before Christmas, we distribute the toys to nonprofits and agencies that serve children in need across the Bay Area.
