Bringing Smiles to Children in Need Since 1991

35 years Wow!!

Since 1991, the Toy Foundation team (that has included you) has bought toys and gifts to create smiles on the faces of the younger generation and even helped a few adults. Sometimes a toy, game, or book can lighten their burden, even if only for a little while, and make them forget the issues that weigh them down…again, your toys do make a difference.

Over the past three decades, we have netted more than $1 million and collected more than 15,000 shiny new toys valued over $400,000. Donations from our softball and golf events allowed us to help the Bikes for Kids, Adesa Bikes and Toys Program, Mercy Home for Boys and Girls, Gi Gi’s Playhouse, Veteran Tickets Foundation, Pathways for Youth, The Miracle League of Arizona, a variety of Chicagoland shelters at Christmas, and some very needy kids in the Navajo Nation.

This year are also spotlighting sharing toys and games for Ukraine children impacted by war. In addition, thanks to your generosity, we have sent kids to sporting events, and some very deserving kids went to the camps … a memory they will not soon forget. As always, we looked for nonprofits, churches, school programs, and individual families in need of assistance and provided it. Thanks to your help, we have been succeeding.
