Every Toys for Tots Holiday Campaign is powered by dedicated leaders who care deeply about the children and families in their communities.
Across the Nation, local Toys for Tots Coordinators, Marines, Marine Corps League members, and local community organizations come together to bring our Toys for Tots mission to life.
Their work goes far beyond organizing toy drives. They recruit volunteers, build meaningful community partnerships, coordinate distributions, and help ensure that children in need experience the hope and joy of the holiday season.
For some, that commitment doesn't end after Christmas.
Throughout the year, several Coordinators continue finding new ways to serve their communities—whether it's hosting community outreach events, supporting year-round toy and book distributions, partnering with local organizations, or bringing special moments to children who need them most.
Earlier this summer, Mount Laurel, New Jersey Coordinator Gina Capate organized a special Toys for Tots distribution at Cooper University Hospital, where Gunny Bear helped personally deliver toys to children receiving care. It's just one example of the compassion and dedication our local leaders bring to the mission every day.
We're grateful to the Marines, local Coordinators, volunteers, and community partners whose generosity helps make the Toys for Tots mission possible—not just during the holidays, but all year long. ❤️
