Give to Kids in Need – Donate Your Toys and Games to The Toy Bank
May 8, 2018 | What could be more fun for a child than spending a summer day running through a sprinkler, riding a bike, or doing arts & crafts? All children deserve a chance to experience the magic of play but not every child has access to skill-building toys and games. The Toy Foundation (TTF) is asking toy companies to help bring smiles and laughter to children in need by making a donation to TTF’s Toy Bank.
The Foundation is looking to bring play to more than 1 million disadvantaged children this year, including those who are sick, in foster care, living on U.S. military bases, or facing other hardships. If your company has excess inventory, consider making a donation to TTF’s Toy Bank, which accepts brand-new toys and games of all kinds, including action figures, arts and crafts, dolls, plush, puzzles, and outdoor toys.
“Every child deserves to experience the joy and comfort that toys and play bring all year round, not just during the holiday season,” said Elizabeth Max, TTF’s senior foundation manager. “Our goal is to reach more than 1 million kids this year and we can’t do it without the industry’s support.”
Toy companies interested in donating may contact Elizabeth Max to learn more. All donations are tax deductible.
Since 2003, $200 million in brand-new toys have been distributed to 24 million children and families in need through The Toy Bank, the Foundation’s signature program.
