Ho-Ho-Ho – it’s that time of the year and the annual Toys For Tots campaign for the Dallas area is in full swing!
As the United States Marine Corps Reserves website states “Because every child deserves a toy at Christmas”.

There are opportunities to host an event, donate, and volunteer – forms are provided on-line to submit your interest. Sponsors of this wonderful event are also listed and thanked for their participation.
Thank you to the United States Marine Corps (and all of our wonderful branches of service) for their continued dedication to our country. You are appreciated more than words can convey.

My wife and I get 2 full families to buy for. Very very satisfying
used to have a big drive here, but the people who ran it locally went out of buisness. And although it's not the same organization the local fire department stepped up to help local kids who need something under the tree. Some years I buy gifts, this year was exceptionally busy so I donated money instead.
What a wonderful cause, Lisa! I hope their efforts bring in excess of their goals!
Lisa, our office at Beverly Hills Berkshire Hathaway does the same instead of paying to go to our Holiday/Christmas Party we all bring a toy or two for about $20-$30 and that is our entrance fee:) all goes for the same cause as yours:))Endre
Morning Lisa.
Haven't seen the toys for tots around here. I'm sure there is one, just haven't came across it. Now, I've got some searching to do.
Hi Lisa... one of my most favorite charities at Christmas time. No child should have a Christmas without a gift. The have geared up for this in our area, as well.
No child should go without at this season....it's on our "field trip" list this week to do our "tot shopping."
When I was in broadcasting - we hosted the Toys for Tots drive every year. No child should ever be left out from getting a toy from Santa. D
Lisa Toys for Tots is an easy way to help make a child's Christmas a special one. I dropped off a gift yesterday at one location, I will be bringing a gift to an event tonight, and tomorrow dropping off another gift at a third location. I kind of feel like Santa Clause
Lisa, Toys for Tots is one of my favority charities that I give to every year. Not only is it fun to buy a toy or two or more, but just to imagine the smile on a child's face when they receive it is priceless.
I agree William Feela it is a satisfying feeling, I love Toys-For-Tots!
That's wonderful Tammy Lankford, those firefighters rock!
It is always a big success Debe Maxwell, CRS and hopefully this year will be no exception!

I agree Debb Janes EcoBroker and Bernie Stea JD no child should be without Christmas!

Silvia Dukes PA, Broker Associate, CRS, CIPS, SRES it is fun imagining the smiles on the children's faces when they receive these toys!
Good evening Lisa Von Domek ,
Great charity for sure. This year I enjoyed working with foster children through Austin Angels and will be posting about it soon. So many wonderful charities needing out help..it is the season to give.
That's wonderful Dorie Dillard and I will watch for your post to learn about Austin Angels!

Toys for Tots is an outstanding community program that puts a smile on many children's face.
Good luck and success.

Hi Lisa - outstanding charity and wonderful nation wide response. Many companies here do it.
Lisa, great post, and giving to Toys for Tots ensures some kiddos that would not otherwise get a toy, now will. We have a few programs here too.
