Gifts raised will be held and distributed at Christmas time to less fortunate children in St. Louis. So anyone who donates a toy is really donating a smile to a child in their own community. The mission is to surpass the 16.3 million toys, books and other gifts raised in 2009 that fulfilled the holiday dreams of 7.4 million children in more than 690 communities nationwide.

• Look for the Official Toys for Tots TOY STORY 3 donation boxes displayed at each event.
• Any new and unwrapped toy, book or gift will gratefully be accepted.
• We encourage donations for children of all ages, but please especially consider pre-teen and teenagers.

Toys for Tots, a 63-year-old national charitable program run by the U.S. Marine Corps Reserve, provides happiness and hope to disadvantaged children during each Christmas holiday season. The toys, books and other gifts collected and distributed by the Marines offer those children recognition, confidence and a positive memory for a lifetime. It is such experiences that help children become responsible citizens and caring members of their community. Last year the Marine Corps fulfilled the holiday hopes and dreams of 7.4 million less fortunate children. Toys for Tots relies on individual donations as well as support from local businesses and national corporations.
