children and older children are often in high demand. So please consider these
types of toys as you make your toy selections.
As a business leader, what can I do to help the Toys for Tots
drive?
You play a key role by allowing the Marines to place collection bins in your
stores and by bringing the toys you’ve collected so far to one of the drop off
locations.
Who gets the toys that are donated locally?
Local kids get the toys. For example, toys donated in the St. Joseph County
area are distributed to children in the St. Joseph County area.
Who distributes the toys?
As Christmas nears, Marines distribute toys themselves and enlist the aid of
local social service agencies — and churches — to help out during the
Christmas season.
