Community-led toy drives & packing events supporting The Jared Box Project for hospitalized children.

04/01/2026

A trunk full of kindness! Yesterday, we dropped off Jared Boxes at Geisinger Lewistown Hospital to help bring smiles to young patients. 💚

This wouldn’t be possible without the support of our amazing community, generous donors, and the national office of The Jared Box Project.

We are truly grateful for the local businesses that helped make our first event possible. 💚

88 Jared Boxes. 💚
One small idea turned into 88 boxes bringing comfort, smiles, and joy to local hospitalized children. This is what community looks like.
We’re just getting started.

✨ Tomorrow ✨ we’re packing Jared Boxes for kids in our local hospital: and every single box matters.

If you’ve been thinking about coming, this is your sign! Stop by anytime between 12-2 PM at the Juniata County Library and help us bring a little comfort to a child who needs it. 💚

We are so grateful to be featured in today’s Lewistown Sentinel!

This Saturday’s Packing Event is coming together because of this amazing community — and we’re not done yet! There’s still time to donate, attend, and be part of something that truly makes a difference for kids in our local hospitals. 💚

Today we picked up the donation boxes and got to see just how many toys our community donated…and wow. It was far more than we ever expected. 💚

Seeing the generosity from everyone has been incredible, and it’s going to make a huge difference for the kids at Geisinger Lewistown Hospital who receive these Jared Boxes.

Now we’re getting everything organized and ready for the Packing Event! If you’re planning to bring toys with you, a few items we could especially use more of are:

• Small stuffed animals
• Small, soft balls
• Memory card games for toddlers (ages 1–3)

Thank you to everyone who has donated so far and helped make this possible. We can’t wait to pack these boxes together!

Tomorrow is the last day for drop-offs!

You can still bring toys directly to the Packing Event, but if you plan to, please comment or message what you’re bringing so we can keep track of our total count.

You’re Invited to Our First Jared Box Packing Event!✨

We’re officially donating our completed Jared Boxes to Geisinger Lewistown Hospital, and we’d love for you to be part of it. 💚

📅 Saturday, March 21 at 12:00 PM
📍 Juniata County Library

Here’s what to expect:
• Drop off new toy donations (ages 1–3)
• Help pack and decorate Jared Boxes
• Write encouraging notes to include inside
• Connect with others who care about supporting local families

Each box becomes a moment of comfort for a child during a hospital stay — something small that can make a big difference.

Can’t attend? You can still donate items or help spread the word.

Let’s fill as many boxes as we can. 💛

Can’t make it on March 21? You can still make a difference. 🤍

Even if you can’t attend our Packing Event, there are two easy ways to help:

🎁 Donate new toys for children ages 1–3 at any of our drop-off locations
📲 Share this post to help us reach more families in our community

Every small action adds up. The more toys we collect, the more children in local hospitals will receive a box filled with comfort, distraction, and joy during a scary time.

If you’d like a list of suggested items or drop-off locations, check our pinned post or send us a message.

Let’s show up for local kids — even if it’s from a distance. 💛
