In 2021, Toys for Tots helped support 13,635 with toy distribution! There isn’t a more special moment than unwrapping gifts with the little ones. Yet, so many children suffer in silence because of poverty.

Toys for Tots ensure that children have a chance at a memorable holiday. You can be a part of the magic! Read on to discover our top 3 tips for donating toys to tots!

Tips #1 Donating Toys For Tots

You might be most familiar with dropping toys off at our drop off locations. This year, you can access the Toys for Tots drop off location at the Parks dealership! Don’t forget about our Augusta KS location, “9 miles East of high prices!”

We want to note here that the toys for tots drop off location will open beginning December 13th. Capture this moment of opportunity to donate to a good cause. We look forward to seeing the treasure you bring in!

We understand that the cold chill of winter could scare folks away from coming in. Don’t worry; we have a great option for those who would like to donate from home! Read on to see our next tip for donating without leaving your cozy abode.

Tip #2 Donate Online

54% of donators are choosing to donate online. It can be hard during the holidays to find the free time to drop off toys at a location. We want to make donating more convenient for you!

That is why our second tip for donating is to donate online! Keep in mind that you have the option to make recurring payments to help more kids. You won’t spend gas money or time to make a child smile.

If you’re interested in cutting down on gas intake, we can help. Meet with one of our team members to discuss the best gas saver car options! Want to find a way to help more?
