🎄❤️ Let’s clear up the difference between Towing for Toys and Tiger Christmas! ❤️🎄
As the holiday season approaches, we want to help our community understand that Towing for Toys and Tiger Christmas are two separate programs, each serving families in its own special way. While both programs work to make Christmas brighter for children, they operate differently—and families can participate in BOTH! 🎁
🚗 Towing for Toys, operated by Monty McCuiston, provides a “toy store” where families in Calloway County can come and pick out 2–3 toys for their children. In the past, we have helped facilitate the sign-up process for Monty, but Towing for Toys is a separate program from Tiger Christmas.
🐅 Tiger Christmas supports our Murray Independent students and their siblings through community donations. These donations allow parents to shop at Walmart during a designated time to choose gifts for their own children. This may include that one special item their child has been asking for, clothing, shoes, and other basic necessities. Sometimes, it even means getting bedding or other items to help make a child’s bedroom feel extra special. ❤️
✨ Here’s the most important thing to know: Families do NOT have to choose one program over the other! Families can sign up for Towing for Toys to receive a few toys and also participate in Tiger Christmas to shop for additional items their children need or have been dreaming of.
Both programs have the same heart behind them: making sure children feel loved, supported, and special during the holiday season. By working alongside one another, we can help meet more needs and bring a little extra Christmas magic to our community. 🎅🎄
We are so grateful for everyone who gives, volunteers, and helps make these programs possible. Thank you for helping us take care of our kids and families! ❤️🐅🎁
