Children are struggling to cope in these unprecedented times. Toys, books and games offer many benefits during this extraordinary time of need. They will help to combat boredom, relieve anxiety in children, facilitate a return to normalcy, and even contribute to the educational development of our nation's most precious resource - our children. Your support provides toys to vulnerable children- including children experiencing homelessness, deep poverty, and other struggles.

Children already struggling with homelessness, poverty and other challenges are plunged further into crisis.
Toys, books and games offer many benefits during this extraordinary time of need. They will help to combat boredom, relieve anxiety in children, facilitate a return to normalcy, and even contribute to the educational development of our nation's most precious resource - our children. Toys will be distributed in socially distant ways- "door-dashes", school lunch drive-thru/drop-off's, and food pantry drive-thru's.
We know alleviating the financial burden of basic hygiene supplies creates room for people to afford more basic needs. Providing hygiene items therefore becomes an essential tool in empowering people to live clean, healthy and active lives and make a big difference toward the movement to end poverty.
