It’s National Vision Board Day, and we’re gathering our biggest, brightest dreams — more joy, more support, and more smiles for children in every community we serve.

At Toys for Tots, our vision is simple: to ensure every child feels the magic of hope and possibility. And with supporters like you by our side, those dreams become reality.

Together, we can fill more hearts, inspire more futures, and deliver more magical moments. ✨

We hope you'll join us as we work toward another year of giving, growing, and bringing smiles to children in need throughout every season.

This week kicks off Letter Writing Week! ✉️

There’s something truly special about a handwritten letter — it opens the door to creativity, reflection, and connection. For children, it’s a wonderful way to nurture a love of reading, writing, and lifelong literacy.

Encourage a child to jot down a note to someone they love, write a heartfelt thank-you to a friend, or share a simple message of kindness with someone who needs it.

These small letters can create BIG moments of joy, confidence, and connection. ❤️

We want to start with something simple but heartfelt: thank you.

While we finalize the numbers from 2025, one thing is already clear. Your generosity helped make it a powerful year for Marine Toys for Tots and for the children we served across the Nation.
But compassion does not end when the calendar changes.

Because of you, children continue to feel supported, cared for, and remembered well beyond the holiday season. Your kindness shows children that they matter every day of the year, not just for a single day on the calendar.

Your generosity throughout 2025 helped provide toys, books, and comfort to disadvantaged girls and boys. You stood with children when it mattered most and continued to stand with them long after the holidays passed.

As we step into 2026, children facing poverty, uncertainty, and unexpected hardship still need hope and emotional relief. Compassion doesn’t follow a calendar, and neither does our mission.

One meaningful way to carry compassion forward into the new year is by becoming a monthly supporter. Monthly giving helps ensure children receive care and support all year long, not just during the holidays.

We are deeply grateful for the role you play in this work. Your generosity allows Marine Toys for Tots to serve disadvantaged children with dignity, care, and hope, season after season.
We have important work ahead in 2026, and I look forward to sharing how your compassion continues to make a difference for children in need across the Nation.

Our toy count is in. And thanks to our amazing community and its supporting businesses we had over 22,000 toys donated. This helped over 8739 kids this 2025 season. Between the 1500 families that registered online, our non-profit and foundations we were slammed with one of the most challenging seasons I've ever been a part of. There are many things we can do better and we will do so. We also need feed back on how our volunteers and the program conducted itself. [email protected] is where to send your feed back please. But let's remember our Holiday Heros are the ones who stepped up with a box saying we are here to help. There will be pictures and a shout out to each of them over the next few weeks. Please remember to thank them as this would not be successful without them. God Bless and a Happy New Year to all. SEMPER FI.
