Our Mission

MISSION STATEMENT
The mission of the U.S. Marine Corps Reserve Toys for Tots Program is to collect new, unwrapped toys during October, November and December each year and to distribute those toys as Christmas gifts to needy children in the community in which the campaign was conducted. The Toys for Tots program wishes to play an active role in the development of our nation's most valuable natural resource - our children.  It is our goal to unite all members of local communities in a common cause for three months each year during the Annual Toy Collection and Distribution Campaign and to contribute to the betterment of communities both now and in the future.  Local Toys for Tots Campaign Coordinators conduct an array of activities throughout the year which include golf tournaments, foot races, bicycle races and other purely voluntary events designed to increase interest in Toys for Tots.  At the same time these activities generate toy and monetary donations. The program is a national effort administered locally; the community in which toys will be distributed is the same community in which they were collected.  The success of the Program relies on volunteer support and community involvement.
