Edit: As some should have seen in your messages, we will also have someone there Tuesday evening as well. If you have contacted us about delivery, we hope to have everything delivered by Tuesday. Thank you again!

From about 300 toy lots to 40! Thank you for everyone to came to pick up their prizes on Wednesday before the storm and have donated to coordinate delivery!

Monday we will be at the Medford Family Network from 9am-12noon for a final pick up day for the remaining items.

Anything that hasn't been picked on Monday will be donated. If you can't make it and need delivery, please contact us to coordinate.

Thank you again to everything who donated toys, time and money!

I know a few people asked about making sure families-in-need had access to gifts too - here is one example of a great Medford club who has donated to help the Medford Family Network provide for these families! Thank you Medford Kiwanis Club!

Just a reminder, that we have canceled pick ups for tomorrow and ask anyone who can to pick up today. There’s someone at the MFN until 5 o’clock. And then someone else will be there from 6 to 8. If this is a problem let us know and for a donation, ideally, to the Friends of the Medford Family Network we can set up delivery for early next week.

Thank you to everyone who has come so far today. We really appreciate it. And thank you again to so many in the community who donated and have volunteered with this event. Not only have you help make some Christmases is a little brighter but we also have raised almost $2000 since toy drop off started. Thank you so much!!

Due to the impending snowstorm on Thursday, we are going to cancel the pickup times for Thursday. If you cannot come to a pick up time tomorrow, please consider letting us deliver to you for a donation (amount your choice), or send a message if either of these options is a hardship for you.

Sorry for the late notice, and once again, thanks for participating and to all those who have donated to the FMFN so far!
