2025 CHRISTMAS TOY AND COAT DRIVE

Thanksgiving Food Drive

 

Our 1st Annual Christmas Toy and Coat Drive is our charitable initiative for the holiday season where we collect new or gently used toys and winter coats for children and families in need. This drive aims to bring holiday cheer to our families experiencing hardship and ensure that every child has a warm coat for the winter and a toy to unwrap on Christmas Day. Your donations can help brighten the season for families facing financial hardship, especially during a time when expenses can be particularly burdensome.

Goals of the Drive

1. Ensure that children and adults have access to warm coats during cold winter months.

2. Give toys to children who may otherwise not receive gifts during the holidays.

3. Foster a spirit of generosity and community by encouraging local involvement and support.

Key Components

  1. Toy Donations:
    • New, unwrapped toys for children of all ages, from infants to teenagers.
    • These can include action figures, dolls, games, books, and educational toys. (Ages 1-17 years old)
  2. Coat Donations:
    • Gently used or new winter coats, hats, scarves, gloves, and other cold-weather gear.
